Yes, but I need the 300dpi for small characters in figures (this is for the purpose of IT books having diagrams as images with small characters in them).
Ah, IT books with small text in an image. This is not the typical use for an ebook reader but interesting non the less. Images do need special handling. There needs to be a way to make them full size and then pan them. This will solve your bpi problem and is even better since even 300 bpi won't solve the problem completely. The latest ebook reader from Microsoft actually has a special image viewer built in. PDF viewers typically have to deal with this as well. We haven't talked much about images and image handling as a requirement but it is certainly real for a lot of folks although fiction book readers don't see the need. I believe a hardware reader should address this in an effective manner.
