The older Kindles, pre-Paperwhite models, and the current non-touchscreen Kindles have a screen resolution of 600 x 800 pixels for 167 ppi. The Paperwhite 1 and 2 have a screen resolution of 768 x 1024 pixels for 212 ppi. We noticed when the PW1 came out last year how the text/font sizes (height of fonts on the screen) no longer matched, and it is because of the different resolutions. I'm surprised HarryT didn't remember that.
