Do high dpi photo books exist?

[trevorb]

Does anybody know where I can get a photo book printed at, at least 300dpi?
I just had one printed from Blurb. It looks like it was printed at 90dpi,the quality is very poor. But perhaps I was expecting too much at a cost of $40 US per book. I am not to concerned with the cost, I would just like a hard covered book in which I would feel comfortable giving to a client.
Thank you.

Lots of better solutions exist than Blurb. And this topic has been discussed a lot here on DGrin. A search should bring up a lot of options, but two I'm fond of are Asuka Book and Pounds Photo Labs.

also check out Miller's and WHCC press printed books, much higher quality than Blurb at very comparable cost.

Thanks urbanaries! I was wondering about WHCC and the quality.

I have actually been more pleased with the paper quality of Miller's, in many cases for less money, FWIW.
