I share your interest in larger readers, but I don't think the companies do. Yes, they can produce cheaper devices by omitting the writing functionality, but they also lose potential customers by omitting the writing functionality. It would seem that most people who don't care about writing also prefer smaller devices so they can read books on the go, whereas writing is a natural fit for larger form factors.
If the rumours of Amazon paying for 300 PPI exclusivity are true, then your options are to buy the Scribe and deal with its shortcomings, accept another device with a lower PPI, or do nothing and wait a few years for somebody to release a device that interests you.
Are you really sure that PPI matters to you, or are you just relying on the numbers? There are plenty of videos of the Kobo Elipsa, Boox Note series, and other 227 PPI 10" devices on YouTube, and their screens don't look bad by any means. Unless you're sure that < 300 PPI will really bother your eyes, you may want to just buy a standard 227 PPI 10" device.
