Well, 5X zoom on a 5-inch screen wouldn't help much. If the zoomed-in text exceeds the screen border, it's unusable. I wouldn't want to scroll horizontally.

But I'd say at below $200, it's a very good deal for those who only read ebooks in formats like epub or mobi, and all those formats which allow text reflow.
