ummmm....an 8.5" x 11" page has a diagonal measure of approximately 14"...just ask your old friend Pythagoras. So with smaller margins this is an ideal screen size for those pages.
This size panel is PERFECT for research materials, reference books, etc...the lack of this size panels is exactly WHY those publishers are not jumping feet first into the ebook market. I know of two in one of the areas I work who are very eager to being pubishing ebook versions and almost everyone who works in those areas has been clamoring for them for a while now. Plus it's a way for these publishers to sell 2nd copies to people as none of us would mind the cost compared to the shelves and shelves of nothing but references. And we NEED color as it is important to the research...but the color must be accurate.
