167 or more ppi
David@... 10th Sep 2010
Most computer interfaces have been designed using the 72dpi or 90dpi

72dpi is 800x600 on a 14"...
a typical eBook reader averages about 167ppi... or 800x600 on a 6" screen...

But that is too small for a typical website surfing device.

A tablet has a great e-book vocation...

I would go for a 167 ppi minimum with

So a 1280x800 at 9" would be great... with a browser that supports good zooming features making the site zoom adustable. (it fits in about A5 form factor 720p)...

In the larger formats I would go for a 1920x1200 A4 size (13"@175ppi)...

that would make a great eBook reader,Internet Surfing + Full HD media viewer...
