That's only if you are printing out the pics. I haven't printed a pic in ages. Took a trip to Universal Studios last year, took over 500 pics, posted the best to Flickr, and emailed the site to friends and family to look at on their PC. On the PC, 1280x1024 is more than large enough for good veiwing.
The big difference is having a good optical zoom. If you can't frame the picture well using the full resolution of the CCD, at 1.3 Mp you can't really "blow it up", all you are really doing, even with digital zoom, is cropping the picture.
