More like 800x480 because most of these are widescreens ;) The thing as, as it was mentionned in other posts, dpi values vary wildly from screen to screen. You can have 4 inches 800x480 screens (n810) or 2.5 inches 800x480 (mylo2), so spacing can't just be given in pixels. Couldn't the HIG be rewritten in dpi relative values ?

i have no idea, do you remember when web pages had best viewed on 800x600...
well on programs they could add and beyond... still is no use for now

UMPC are out there, so we could start to think in terms of 7 max 10 inches and 800x600 resolution with max 24bit colors to strip down an HIG
