The resolution was acceptable last year at 9.7".
With the same pixels as the iPad2 and a smaller screen it will be an improvement over the iPad2, even if the resolution is not as high as the newer retina screen on the iPad3.
Anyway, to answer your question about why, it's so all the existing iPad apps will work on the mini.
