Jack, I know we've had a similar opinions in the past regarding the iPad resolution. I went to the Apple Store this weekend to check out the iPad mini. I was so looking forward to this size for ages, but the resolution still isn't good enough for me so I am going to stick with the iPad with retina display for now (using 2 column landscape display) and wait for the next mini generation.

Obviously holding it directly in your face is not going to give you good results. Holding it like you would a Kindle is better.
Thanks to both of you. I might see if the Apple Store in Fort Worth has one to look at. It is a bit of a drive but not too far away. I found one in a Walmart but it was sealed in a glass display and turned off, and the Walmart sales clerk was no where to be found!
