    Not sure where you got the .3 from? I have the new iphone 5 (http://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html) and it has a 4" screen. That final inch does make a big difference in size when you think that the physical height of the iphone is less then 5".
    Other smartphones are available.

    Some even have bigger screens.

    Also, there is a £519 difference between the two devices? You don't NEED an iphone to transfer books - just a blue tooth device.

    It has mule tooth and bluetooth?

    The problem is, its a subsidised £10 by the Telco networks, you can't just fork over 10 quid, you need a smartphone with a subscription. and I pretty much lost interest after that.

    So it costs £10 in the same way that an iPhone 5 costs £10 if you are willing to pay the right monthly tariff for 2 years?

    Almost, its being pitched as an accessory for a phone, so you would get a phone (on contract) and you could get the reader as an optional extra.
