I have to vehemently disagree:-)

Reading a novel on the 8" iLiad is like reading a book. And it's as portable as a thin book.

Reading the same novel on a 6" K2 is..., well I am kind of used to it, but I much prefer the bigger one.

Kind of like the difference between reading a hard-cover and a paperback, for me.
