So when viewing images that are meant to be read or the detail is meant to be seen, it can be hard to see because the image on screen is now too tiny to see well. take a map that's 2/3rds the size of an 800x600 screen and put it on a 1430x1080 screen and try reading the text or seeing some of the detail. It isn't easy.
I know. That is why I said an 800x600 map will work on a low-end e-reader (one with an 800x600 screen). On higher-end e-readers you will need larger maps.

I for one replace all of the maps in my books with the highest resolution ones I can find, and I also replace the cover by one which is 1000 pixels high at least, if I can find it. If there is one thing I don't care about, then it's file size.
