The 9100 is identical in size to the 7410 (even uses the same "box" and chassis).  Lots bigger than my 746!
 
I have 2 7410s, 1 746, 2 7000s, 1 735, 1 706 Mk II, plus 1 703+. 
 
I use 2710s and 2720s for mobile FM rigs. 
 
I don't see a 2730, 7100, or 7300 in my future rig complement. 
 
I suspect the 7300 will be a great improvement over a 718 for many users and especially as a Field Day rig. 
 
I already have one 7000 plus a 2720 in my "go-box" for Field Day and emergency use.
