Not sure if you had the time to find out, but other than something like Calibre to reformat all of a person's books intended for the device, can that margin be adjust to any degree? Did you find the lack of a margin distracting? I know we all can get used to almost anything but not sure this one would not leave me shaking my head.
Because of my hand problems I am also attentive to the issue of these devices getting too thin and small. PDA size is fine as long as I can hold onto it without squeezing. Plus, I already have a PDA size device in my PDA. But I could see for someone who wants the smallest reader possible, why not if the price is right?

Well there are people who have been debating a 5" or 6", thinking that 5" is just too small a screen and 6" is too large a device. This is something of a happy compromise.
I suspect I'm the only one who thinks the text in that photographed device is enormous. As far as the margin...6" and 3:4 is not enough real estate for real margins IMO.
