Screen Size and Battery Consumption

Hi,

While thinking about different e-Paper readers, a question came to my mind regarding the screen size and the battery consumption. And I know we have some experts here so I wanted to quickly pick your brains about this.

Let's say we have two e-Paper readers: One of 5" screen the other one 9". So if I read the same book on both using the same font size, the book will have considerably fewer pages on the larger device. As most (if not all) of the constructors publish their benchmarks based on page-turns, is it fair to say that to read a given book at a given pace, a larger e-Paper reader will consume less power? Or the extra power used for the larger display makes the difference negligible?
