Hey Chris, chill out. I realize that you’re just trying to be cute, but here on the internet, comments full of derogatory words can be often taken as abrasive when we don’t see your adorable dimpled smile that goes along with it. The irony here, is that you are the ignorant one, my friend. Those are both the same screen resolution, simply reverse the numbers and you’ll see what I mean. The resolution of the GUI might be 320×480, but apps can be either. You see, the iPhone’s accelerometer allows you to change aspect ratio from vertical to horizontal with a simple 90-degree rotation of the device. A lot of apps are set up for the horizontal, or 480×320, resolution.

Well, I wouldn’t worry about him, he is criticizing someone, and yet cannot spell dumba$$ correctly, so I wouldn’t take much stock in what he says.

and yes when you trun the iphone, the resolutions changes to 480 x 320 so it can be both.
