Let me explain what I was saying above in a different way.
The usable space (sans 20 px status bar) is 1536 x 2008 or 2048 x 1496 @ 72 DPI. We all agree about the pixel size/resolution. I was never suggesting that one should output images for an app or website at 264 DPI.
HOWEVER, it still stands that IF someone is working on a digital publication using digital magazine plugins for InDesign, and IF that person wants to work in a 1:1 ratio (e.g. to use 9 pt type that will actually APPEAR the same optical size in an app), then one needs to work with images that are 264 DPI. The files at the end of the day will be output based on pixel dimensions, which will of course be 72 DPI. No argument there.
