Could you expand on limited resolution digital displays? A 5 inch e-ink device such as the PRS-300 has 200 pixels per inch. The maximum resolution of the human eye in good light and at common reading distances is around 600 pixels per inch. I wouldn't call a device that can produce resolutions at one third the maximum we can perceive under ideal conditions to be a "limited resolution display".
