This further fuels my obsession with a maximum screened pocketable device. Honeycomb provides for the buttons to be activated on the screen so there is no need for a wasted oversize bezel area.

Keep the bezel the same minimum size all round and you have a 6" device that corresponds pretty well to the overall dimensions of a Dell 5" Streak.

Oh my
Finally someone here gets it.
You cannot get rid of bezels, they help you hold the device without accidentally triggering a touch response, and offer protection to the edge/side of the screen (which is the weakspot, believe it or not).

But they dont have to be as jumbo as they are, see the Galaxy S phone, on the vertical sides the bezel is a matter of mm's, this can be applied to tablets. I'd prefer a size which is 2/3's the size of the iPads bezel for balanced comfort and portability.
