It depends. For A5 typeset scans (most books) it's overkill and 7.8" InkPad 3 suffices. For A4 scans (old newspapers and such), 10" is a necessity, so it's a matter if you really need to read pages that were typeset for A4 format.

The general guiding rule for pdf scans is "read in size of the original material, shrink the scan to 90% at most". Obviously 6" (cellphone, kindle, touch lux...) is far too small for anything scanned, and is only barely acceptable for text that can reflow.
