[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1068944, member: 38864"] Didn't Jobs say it is essentially the same screen as the iPhone 4? Yes… the pixel density isn't "quite" as high, but higher pixel density on a screen that size would mean a higher native resolution, which would require more processing power to render those graphics, which would mean apps would get larger in size, which would mean a bigger hit on the battery… etc etc. It's all a trade-off and you have to draw the line somewhere. I'm also wondering if you think the text is fuzzy because you are looking at iPhone apps magnified to 2x. [/QUOTE]
