>But seriously, the device won't necessarily be small. I am sure small devices like cell phones will be used by some as e-Readers (as indeed they are now), but that would only be for those to whom compactness is essential. What I picture is something about the size of a magazine page. Given ongoing improvements in pixel resolution and the upcoming no-glare screens, they will be at least as readable as a magazine. All you will be giving up will be the ability to open up a paper newspaper to a size of 2.5 feet by 2.5 feet. Is that really a feature? Think about it.
