And, even if there weren't a spec limitation, 1280 x 800 is far better than any other phone I've heard of.

And what Windows Mobile did when they introduced VGA.
However, not every manufacturer seems to worry about that. Samsung's Omnia had a non-standard resolution, I believe, at something like 400 x 240. And, yes, it does cause problems with some programs, but most good Windows Mobile developers started supporting different screen resolutions when WM 2003 SE came out (if they weren't doing it before for NYDITOT).

P.S. Resolution doubling of 800 x 480 would actually be 1600 x 960, not 1600 x 920.
