It's just a matter of what you're reading needs are, whether you're carrying the device around or mostly using it at home etc.
My Kindle 1 is a nice size for a device to just read novels. The screen is around the size of a page of a mass market paperback which was what I was reading before. I don't carry it around often, but if I do it doesn't take up much room in my backpack etc.--or if you're female it easily fits in a purse etc.
That said, I do want a bigger screen device--ideal A4 size screen on or smaller, for reading and marking up Academic PDFs--more want a tablet than a dedicated reader for that purpose though.
So I'm not against large screen devices at all. Both small screen and large screen readers have their needs.
