Huh? Why not a book reader?

Even at 11" diagonal, the screen would be smaller than a hardcover (which is over 13" diagonal.) I personally dislike reading on my 6" K2 almost as much as I dislike reading paperpacks. The K DX is way better, but still, far from perfect.

The above is as insulting to us "simple users," as my pointing out that most people who profess to "hate aPple," live in their mother's basement and sweat profusely, when in the presence of a pretty girl (or a sleek Apple product.)
