Mmm, true. Still, the Kindle has a reasonable size of screen on it. 
Probably comparable to a hand-held paperback book. Looking at some of 
the weighty tomes I have in my room, most of the actual *text* isn't 
much wider, there's just more white space on the page. And there's a 
good reason for that: the wider a line of type, the harder it is for the 
eye to scan from the end of one line to the beginning of the correct 
line below it.

All of this of course goes a bit wonky once you have resizeable text on 
a fixed-size screen...
