Just checked out the Kobo and Sony e-reader and Kobo Arc at my local bookstore. First impression, really small. From 5" to 7". But I do like the Kobo Aura HD and Sony T2. They are really light.

I have to say I'm really surprise that e-ink technology has been around for so long and yet, not much improvement. E.g. compare to smartphone's screen, is now already 6.44" on the Z Ultra but e-reader still stuck between 5" to 7". Only recently, we saw a couple of 9.7" e-reader starting to pop up. Manufacturers should wake up and compete with smartphones and tablets. Otherwise, one day, no one will buy it.
