Well then why did you ask who other than me says it? :p

Show me any official usage of it and I'll believe it.
Err, *cough cough*, I lost Google. (I don't want to spend time doing that.)
It's quite simple really: pixel dimensions can be doubled as I've said, and resolution is often used to refer to pixel dimensions.

Avoided?! Look at the first sentence of post #44.
That's not what I was asking though. I was asking how do say it's double 480x320 (meaning 960x640).

It's not supposed to prove what percentage of people use that, it's supposed to prove which convention is officially accepted in the field.
The fact that VESA uses one of its meanings doesn't mean the other isn't valid.

And yes, you can use "linear resolution" as boops boops suggested, but know that in that case you are referring to just one of the components, and not the entire 2D surface. It all comes down to math that you think has nothing to do with it, but in fact it has everything to do with it, from invention, production to nomenclature. In fact, if we ever have 3D holographic displays, doubling each of the 3 dimensions will not result in a doubled resolution but octapled (if that's correct spelling of 8 fold increase).
I'm aware I'm referring to the dimensions only, that's the point. If I want to make an image, a video, or anything, I do it with the dimensions not the pixel count.
Let me ask you a question: if I say: I have a 2560x1440 display but I have to game at half my native resolution... what comes to mind? To me, it's 1280x720.

But you can call it whatever you want. As Shaggy said, there's no law against it. So feel free to call it pumpkin-pieing the resolution. You can say that your iPhone 4 has pumpkin-pie the resolution of iPhone 3GS.
My iPhone 4 has baja-yu the resolution of the iPhone 3GS.

That's wrong as well. It's baja underscore yu, not dash. :)

NOOOOOOOOOO!!! Haha lol. Initially I had baju-ya, so at least there was only one typo after proof reading it several times.
It's late... :o
