Would you buy a 32" TV or a 40" TV if they were almost the same price and the quality was about the same? You'd by the 40" TV.

Disagree! It's very symplistic approach - bigger is better. Better is what fits better within certain sircumstances. I'd never by 40" TV if I have small room. I don't want it to dominate it. Same with bookreaders. If you're big guy you probably like bigger things, if you are smaller, you prefer correspondingly smaller things. Let me be clear, since recently I'm not against 12",10" or 6" screens. One have to make his choice depending on what exactly he reads and what is more convenient to him. I believe that before you buy anything, you better take it in your hands and see what you feel about this thing. Listen, after all you have to live with this thing at least for several yeras. I personally fell better with 5" screen. Fits fine into my jacket pocket, feets fine into my hand, fits fine to my eyesight.
