Acer today made much of its new Iconia's Smart's screen, a big 4.8in, 1024 x 480 boy.
That sounds impressive, but it's no "retina display" to rival the iPhone 4 display.
The Smart's screen has a density of roughly 235 pixels per inch, well below the iPhone's 326ppi.
Acer Iconia Smart
Still, the Smart runs Android 2.3 …
Being longer and thinner is no use to anyone, much better to fatten it up a bit. 800x600 gets my vote as that's the same as a Kindle etc. so will make reading ebooks better. That's the only thing that would get me to dump my beloved E71.

bloody useless aspect ratio

800X600 ??
800X600 Iis a 4:3 aspect ratio. I would much rather have a smart phone with a wide screen. And 1024 on a phone is impresive.
