Yup, the Sony UMPC's use 1024x600 at 4.5". 800x480 will effectively kill Shift (along with the use of VIA if it'll be as slow as its other incarnations) - IMHO. It's even less DPI than current 15.4" WUXGA (or, 15" UXGA) screens - that is, surely far more pixels could be used in the Shift's screen.

And anyone with a high-resolution will agree it's very easy to make use of the extremely high DPI of, say,a 15" UXGA screen if you, for example, use Opera as the main browser. Then, you will almost never run into "the text is too small" problems.
