less vertical pixels is fine as long as you get more pixels in general. the screen on the iphone 4 is the first screen i've seen with an acceptable resolution.
it may seem expensive to get higher res and larger monitors, but if your're going to look at something for 8 hours a day, and usually those are all in a row, the premium price for a nice monitor is worth rebudgeting for.
