Then again, i used to read on the ebookwise 1150 which had dot matrix text, so my standards are probably very low.

I hate jaggies. That's the main reason I almost never used my iPad 2 for web browsing and fiction ebooks (preferred the iPhone 4). There were times I won't use the iPad 2 for a month or so. The iPad with Retina, I use everyday. It's become my preferred device for web browsing.
Really, retina or non-retina I think boils down to individual preferences (and eyesight).
