That large bezel means a bigger footprint, which means it's significantly easier to design the hardware it contains. And since this is meant to directly replace textbooks, the fact it's about the same size as one isn't so unreasonable.

Speaking as someone who carries around a laptop, I sure hope the eDGe can match most of my laptop's abilities. If not, then I'd be stuck with an extra 4 pounds. This would probably discourage me from carrying one or the other (whichever is less useful, which won't be the laptop).
