I figure a high res screen probably means a big screen (mostly).

No, not really. My husband's HTC Tytan Tilt has a bigger screen than my HTC Touch Diamond or HTC Touch Pro but the resolution on the latter is better.
Most screens seem to have a display of 240 x 320 pixels. the Diamond and Pro are 480 x 640 and you can see the difference.

I buy PDA Essentials magazine (U.K.) and got the figures from there.

The Toshiba G910 has 480 x 800 but I've neve seen one. There are very few really high res screens on phones or pdas.

That's why I bought the HP 212 although I already had a good pda. I missed the higher res of my broken HP 4700.
