You find 9-10" is insufficient for reading material?
I have a 7" Android I got to test the waters, and reading ebooks/pdfs/textbooks/magazines is my use case so I'm thinking of going up in screen size- but how much?

12.5" is the 'printable' area of an 8.5 x 11" page with 1" margins. (14" if you include the margins). So especially for PDFs that are 'zoomed to the margins' a retina 12.5" display can be pretty much a 1 for 1 reproduction. And that is something I've wanted for a very very long time.
I ask because I found the standard sized Ipad to be slightly heavy for bedtime and commute reading, whereas the small Ipad (no retina) was more pleasant experience.
I would really love a Retina quality smaller sized Ipad as long as it maintains battery life quality but considering just going Kindle for day to day and full sized Ipad as textbook / video replacement.
