Here is a question for all you Eee (and compatibles) users: how about 
the wallpaper size?

In F9 we added 800x480 as a resolution for which we provide a desktop 
wallpaper (this is the screen size for Eee PC 701).

However, the new generation (from all vendors), launched/will launch 
this summer models with larger display, 8.9-10", with a resolution of 
1024x600px.
We try to keep the package size small, so I think it make sense to 
include only one wallpaper for ultraportables (we have only a few sized 
vor various aspect ratios, all the others are scaled down) and it should 
be 1024x600 (those with 7" displays will show a resized version, it is 
better in such cases to scale down than to scale up).

It is OK to "sacrifice" (a bit to strong said) the 701 series, which is 
not the "coolest thing" any more (and it has a slightly different aspect 
ratio)?
