It's a convenient size. Actually, a fair few have 5" screens as well these days. Smaller readers for novel reading... sure, they're going to typically munge technical books and the like horribly, but they're not really intended for such!

Well, it's not altogether out of the question for especially sized PDFs are made for them. I made an iPhone sized version of Intro. to Mathematical Philosophy, which is somewhat technical, and the iPhone screen is even smaller than the 5" screen.

Agreed. In the meantime, though, if you want to stick with HTML or XML source, and want pretty good looking output -- not quite as nice a LaTeX in my opinion, but pretty good -- you could try converting to PDF via
Prince XML. It uses even uses TeX's hyphenation algorithm, and has some other nice features we've been praising TeX for, despite using XML source It also has *some* support from MathML, though I don't think it's comprehensive. (Haven't tested that yet.)
I've started a thread about
Prince XML here with some screenshots comparing to those I already posted in this thread for ADE's ePub vs. LaTeX.
