Iphone at 3.5" is quite small. HTC now has one at 4.3" and that is still quite "small" in total dimension. So they could squeeze out perhaps 4.5-4.7 with almost no bezel and it would still fit in my pants' front pocket. That is already very close to the 5" of a lot of readers, but a lot more portable. Not for everyone, sure, but much more usable than in the past and the difference is so small that it might make an extra reader hard to justify for many.
