The phrase "retina display" is being used a lot these days. My reading indicates that the vendor uses this term quite loosely [1]. There you can see that the definition currently ranges from 326 to 220 ppi.
The resolution of the XO's display is listed as 200 dpi [2], which is not far off. If I have understood correctly, "dpi" in the context of display technologies is the same thing as ppi [3]. Without infringing any trademarks, how closely could we say that the XO's display is a "retina" one?
