Contact pics are low resolution (about half what they should be)

Does anybody know of a fix for this?

I can use a contact photo source which is very good resolution. However after applying it to a contact, even if I expand the crop square to full size the contact picture displayed while calling is a half the resolution it should be, as I see very visible blurry, blobby pixelation.

Perhaps this is a overlooked element of the OS from previous android phones which had lower resolution screens, and was not noticeable on these?
 
I dunno, maybe it's trying to save bandwidth by downloading lower-res pictures because as of yet, the Droid is the only Android phone with that high of a res. Lower-res phones can show pictures with less pixels at a bigger size. They definitely rushed 2.0, but I hope they fix it in the update.
