I would agree but only because I have other pocket sized devices for reading. Still once eink displays get to where I am better able to read them, and this newest generation seems to have improved enough. I wonder if it was a change in the layer materials? Anyway, I will be eventually buying a pocket sized reader for when I just wanna stuff it in my front pocket and go for a walk and a coffee or whatever.
Still I agree it is sort of a waste of funds to buy readers that are not significantly different other than display size, unless one has special needs for a larger display, but those readers will likely always come with more, ahem, features...just so they can increase the price 2-3x by adding another $15-$20 in components.
