2. CASUAL READING: The text is very big but that also means that I don't need my glasses. Heh
I recently made this decision too. Long a fan of the mini I really wanted the new 6. But my nearsighted eyes are getting miscalibrated having to hold small devices to close. And my thumbs are getting trashed from typing out paragraphs with my thumbs.
So i jumped on a deal with 11 IPP + magic keyboard. Text should be large enough for reading at distance with glasses and the keyboard should get my thumbs out of the typing business. Not the result I want but the result I need. Damn maturity.
