However, E-Ink would likely know who is working on what.

Will reply on this!

This highest resolution e-Ink devices are currently the 5" models at 200 ppi achieve 600x800 in a 5" diagonal display. At 213 ppi you could achieve 768x1024 on a 6" device. This is the current capability of 8" devices and might be a reasonable goal for folks who want high ppi. I think that anti-aliasing techniques could do just as well on the current devices using high gray scale displays and at lower cost. But people with 5" e-Ink devices might want to comment on how much they like the increased resolution.

Note that Jetbook does not count here as it has the same resolution as 6" E Ink devices which computes to about 640x480 on a 5" screen.
