Hi Chris
This is an important point they have raised - they are looking at peripheral vision. We see a circle of about 6cm on screen in one go - anything larger we have to move our eyes to take in more. This is why newspapers tend to be in columns etc etc.
The Zed man has some good writeups on how ~430px (whats the em?) is about the right line length - @ alistapart although where it is I don't know as the search function has disappeared from that site.
Cheers James

Thought I'd share this one with everyone, we received a list of corrections today from one of our clients, and we found a particularly humorous snippet. This correction was given in relation to paragraph line length.
"It makes it hard for people to read if they have to keep moving their eyes"
LOL!
