Did a quick search so sorry if a repost.......

Has anyone here seen or used one yet?

Maybe not a brilliant camera but with all those apps you could get very creative with it's use.

I downloaded the manual but it doesn't answer some of my questions like can I plug a stereo mic into it and there is zero info on the multiport jack on the side of it.

Without being able to be used as a phone I think it fails its intended purpose.

Now I have a compromised bulky camera and I still have to carry my phone.

I love the convergence thing , this just misses the mark due to stupidity.

I had a demo on one at Photokina (the promo girl was a stunner, it was rude not to) and it was very clever, I just couldn't see where it slotted into the market.

I think it will sell quite well. People 'into' photography won't buy it but the instagram folks will lap it up. Take photo, apply filter, edit photo, crop, upload to instagram/flickr/Facebook, tag friends, upload to cloud etc all in camera before you've even made it back home. This can all be done on your phone already but not with a decent optical zoom, proper flash and 16megapixels. I think it's got some appeal although I sure as hell won't be buying it. smile

it's probably going to do for photography what the ipod touch did for music... kids will use it to play games on wink
