How good is it to have a denser screen if:
  1. you're gonna raise the screen dpi and end up with the same text density, only with crispier text; at that already very dense dpi rate (800x480 on 7") the improvement is virtually nill
  2. how good is it, if it "forces even well-behaved dialogues off the screen. "
  3. it makes the device much more expensive

All in all: virtually no advantage for 2 consequent disadvantages :evil:
