I think his point was that you have twice the screen area compared to the six inch devices and he correlated that to being twice as good. Certainly a slanted view to what is important to that user and not the most objective journalistic review, but it's good to see more choice coming into the mix.
I did find the comparison pics to the kindle 2 to be interesting. I've seen many kindle 2 owners saying the device is too large when it's actually slightly shorter, but a little wider than the K2. I personally like the minimalist design and always preferred my iLiad screen size, but I continue to be a little skeptical that iRex got the software right. They never seem to be able to get sleep, battery life etc. dialed in like their competitors have.
