eInk works differently than LCD. You can take a small image (with text) on a hi-res LCD display and still be able to read the text.

With eInk, if the image is too low a resolution compared to the resolution of the screen, then you won't be able to read it all that well. It's not that the PW2's resolution is too low. It's that the resolution of the image is too low. And it will only get worse on a PW3 or Voyage with a higher resolution screen. Unless you specify to render the image with %, you will have two different sizes on screen of a PW2 vs PW3. And given the poor quality of the image, it will just look worse on a PW3 than a PW2.
