Can they provide statistics which show evidence of a large proportion of
640x480 users? The only people who require such resolution are those with
very modern PDA's. The standards (or common practice) says 800x600 is the
minumum to cater for. One who insists on working at 640x480 will just have
to cope with scroll bars.
