It is much lighter, portable and customizable for reading. I am not going to hunt for numbers, but I couldn't hold iPad in my one hand for more then 3 minutes, have no problems with DR800. And the myth about bezel needed also refuted by DR not needing that much of it at all, so the size is almost that of small screen readers.
Screen being personal preference? Well I certainly am not thinking so when reading on my patio near pool, which here in Florida I am doing for hours and 365 days a year. Cannot do that with iPad or iPhone, need to go inside when trying to text or email somebody.
