The translation link didn't work for me on IE9 -- just got a bunch of translation windows opening up.

In any case, 4.7 in seems a little large for a typical pocket and I'd be worried about the weight of this unit. To me, this almost seems like a small tablet, rather than a portable phone.

I wonder if we aren't getting into a 'bigger means better' thing with screens, similar to the idiocy we saw with camera imaging (more pixels means I get better shots!) when most people don't even NEED that amount of detail.

My latest experience with a 4.1 in screen (Dell Venue Pro) left me a bit jaded I guess -- since it looks like they simply expanded the original image to fill the available space without adding any more detail -- essentially expanding the pixels.
