yes. exactly. :+)
my stance -- for many years now -- has been that we will
have machines running the entire range of form-factors...
every single size from index-card to tabloid (and bigger).
consider standard photo-sizes: 4*6, 5*7, 6*9, 8*10, etc.
cad/cam makes this range of sizes easy to manufacture...
but the 9-inch*12-inch form-factor will be the one that
gives the most opportunistic synergy with the real world,
since we can map all our 8.5*11 paper in its actual size...
once we grok the utility of this one-to-one correspondence,
you'll wonder why this wasn't obvious to all of you all along.
and i'll be sitting off all my myself, saying "i told you so..."
like usual...
