The history of humankind: Fire, the wheel and the iPhone screen. Don't you realize how silly you sound?
That was your statement, not mine. Getting 640 x 960 pixels displayed on a 3.5-inch screen is a landmark achievement in technology, no matter which way you slice it.
Obviously the consumer disagrees [...] because they are buying Androids more than twice as fast as iPhones now
A totally bogus argument, and beside the point, too. In the last few posts, we were comparing *screens*, not devices or platforms. And, what does the fact that the masses buy *cheaper* things more than other items, say about quality? Nothing. Or do you wish to suggest that McDonald's offers better food than 5-star restaurants, due to having more patrons? :-p
Resolution does not equate to image quality
It definitely does, when you talk about a 3.5-inch telephone screen. The more pixels are displayed within that confined space, the sharper and higher-quality the resulting picture. Everyone on this planet except Marcello Perathoner recognizes that fact.
My girlfriend likes to sleep with her head on my breast, but YMMV.
Yup. Girlfriends and *serious reading* don't mix. :-D (Impossible to pay proper attention to *both*.) I annotate whatever I read, and that's impossible to do efficiently with other people's heads on your breast. -- Yours, Alex. www.aboq.org [processed by "The Bat!", Version 4.2.10.12]
