I have got myself a Sony now - and I still have to disagree.

Not that I don't like the Sony but 6" is definably not enough for PDF. Even PDFs which are smaller then A4 are impossible to read. I got a C6 manual and I can't read it without re flow. But re flow is a marketing gimmick on limited value.

On the other hand I have read (MOBI) trivia on a 2.8" mobile phone display. So I can image that trivia can be read on 5" just as well.

And that leaves the question what 6" is good for. You need a handbag to carry it but it still can't display PDF.
