I would be afraid that doubling the resolution would severely impact performance. It is the highest resolution that E Ink currently offers although display controllers can probably reach 40 to 50% higher but not 2X, maybe 2000 x 1500 perhaps a year from now.
I agree. And from the experience of using my kindle DXG and boox M92, I believe that the resolution 1200X1600 is enough for reading books. Though I do think we may have a much better handwriting experience with a higher resolution.
