Small??? I've held up an average paperback against it and the text area is within 1/4" of the paperback's. That's hardly *small*.
Of course, if you want to read a technical manual, you'd be better off with a Kindle DX or one of the iRex DR(S?)1000's. But that is going to be expensive.
And while the K2 is smaller than a DX screen, with the larger font sizes, it's quite readable even in poor light.
Another thing is those 14" tablet pcs you're waiting for? Yeah, they're going to be quite a bit heavier than my K2 - and much less 'portable'. Tell you what, you mock up a 14" unit - it'll probably weight around 3.5 pounds - and hold it out at arms length for a few hours. Then do the same for a K2. Tell me which one has you screaming in agony...
