Well, I guess I should have been more specifically and said "neither is going to fit comfortably in typical pockets."
i.e. neither is going to be like a small cell phone you can lug around in your pocket with no worries and forget it's even there until it rings--unless you're wearing huge cargo pants or a jacket/blazer with giant pockets or something.
Personally, 99% of my Kindle use has been in bed, so the portability issue is pretty moot for me. So I'd go toward a bigger screen, since I seldom take mine out of the house anyway--and if I do it's on a flight and I have my briefcase/laptop case I can put it in.
But I guess that diagonal inch could matter more to people who take their e-reader everywhere and don't always have big purse or briefcase or bookbag with them to carry it in.
