The problem is, that eink website seems to use the "E Ink Pearl Active Matrix Display" as a generic term relating to the Kobo Mini, Kobo Glo and the Kindle Paperwhite. Are they all really using the same screens, it seems unlikely, as why would Kobo list the screens on the Glo and Mini differently?

SameerH from Kobo stated that figure too in his post here, and I've read some posts discussing the Kindle Touch and how the firmware for it has support for the features of the new Kindle Paperwhite including "1024x758, 212 dpi display". I haven't a clue if it's a typo or if it's correct and people are just 'fixing' it to the standard 768. Does it really matter?
