There's no standard in phone size, nor should there be. i'm glad that phones, touchscreen phones in particular, are getting larger. It means we're getting back to where we were with PDAs five years ago, with a screen that's useable for actual work, or just comfortable media playback, reading, and web browsing. There'll still be smaller touch screen devices, and of course plenty of smaller "dumbphones".
Regarding the M8 itself, i'm surprised they got multi-touch working. i didn't realize it was that feasible to pair WinCE with a capacitive screen. Pity it's taken them so long to release this, as i would've bought one if they could've released it on the original launch date.
