I'm rather jealous of people who can't see the difference!
+1. If I happen to look at the screen on the retina iPad long enough, I can see edge pixels on diagonal lines and curves (although it's not something I normally notice).

I have a 9.7" Android tablet which can switch between 1600*1200 (206 ppi) and 2048*1536 resolution (264 ppi). The difference is really noticeable particularly reading double-page spreads with small text.
