Question on resolution

Hi ..Hope this is the right forum. I posted it earlier in the wrong one.

Noob here ..to Android. Fairly well versed in PC build and all.

Looking to buy a tablet ..trying to stay at about 200.00 or less ..w/ a capacitive screen.

Most are 800x 480 resolution, such as this ..
E-FUN NextBook PREMIUM 7 Android Tablet 7 inch Capacitive Multi-Touch-Google Android OS 2.3-Capacitive Touch-Kobo-Cortex-A8 1GHz - DinoDirect.com
Others ..just a bit more, are 1024x768 ..like this one ...
New MID V8 Google Android 2.3 8" Capacitive Touchscreen Tablet PC Brown - DinoDirect.com

So, is the higher resolution worth it in such a small screen? If this was a PC, I would go easily with the higher spec, but I know that higher screen settings require more power - easily covered by a PC.

Given limited power in these units, could that make the 800x480 faster ...and still give great IQ ..say for jpegs?

Thanks for ANY & ALL help ..want to make the best decision I can ..so don't be shy. :)
