Otherwise you are merely observing one somethings effect on the other somethings in its vicinity. Cramming more and smaller somethings into the vicinity will not change what your eye can discern.
None-the-less, it appears there is indeed a market of people who will buy 600dpi eReaders. And then 1200dpi after that. And on and on.

It also depends on the size of the device for sure. A 450DPI on the 8 inch devices would be be much better as being so near sighted I can see the pixels easily on these devices, but if they just raised the resolution that would just be better but then it would take more battery ect. The more pixels the smaller they become.
