You can adjust the size of the font. Installing new fonts in the pocketbook is as easy as copy and paste, and adjusting the space between the lines is a breeze as well, so you can make it look as close to a paperback book as you want.
The difference, then, between 5 and 6 inches is the number of lines you get in one page, considering fonts of the same size in inches/centimeters (as opposed to pixels).

I think that's when e-ink devices perform the best.
