Absolutely. Which explains why there are no "A4" Tablet PCs. The combination of large screen and long battery life just doesn't "work" for LCD screens.

If this is designed to be used while tethered to a power cord (USB Charger), it might still work for around the house. One of the mistakes iRex made with the Digital Reader is missing this usage mode (it is possible with the DR, but the device isn't designed to allow it and so the USB socket can break).
Interesting idea, certainly!
