The Panasonic Lumix Phone 101P Might Not Suck at Being a Camera or a Phone
This thing is going to pack a 13.2MP CMOS Lumix sensor. In case you don't know, the image sensors in Lumix cameras are pretty great. It's also going to have a 4-inch QHD LCD screen with 960×540 resolution and a 1Ghz TI OMAP4430 dual-core processor. It's waterproof, like all gadgets should be (though we don't know how waterproof yet), it runs Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) with some Lumix camera software on top (like their pretty terrific Intelligent Auto), and what the hell, let's throw NFC in there so you'll be able to use it as a digital wallet. Oh, and it's thin, at just 9.8mm. AND it's got a camera button.

I agree with you 100%
I was always an advocate for Nokia developing Meego parallel with making hardware with WP7. After all, one is software, one is hardware. It's so sad on many levels, I'm surprised NOONE asked Elop this in any interview. Why the cuss not.
Well, and this also prevents Nokia from having leverage over Microsoft the way they might. Samsung has already started discussing dropping Windows Phone 7. This MIGHT be enough to create some leverage with Microsoft--whereas Nokia has none, now. Not with this already announced public strategy. It would be an embarrassment to suddenly change it--giving Microsoft all the leverage. What an idiot of a CEO Nokia has at the helm.

You're clearly going to buy it anyway. Eventually, you KNOW you're going to hear it the moment you complain about anything: "You should have researched it before you bought it." It won't matter that there wasn't much to research, you'll have clearly not done it. Also... the drinking game thread now demands that you take a shot after reading that quoted sentence.

I'm trying, and trying but you just appear to be talking in a marble-mouthed jumble of letters with lots of misspelled or ambiguous words. I accept your apology for what I think might have been swear-words in there somewhere, I think.

As you so eloquently put it: "im no.1 iphone hater!" You, for one, are CLEARLY not an iPhone hater! Understood! That's what I've been saying! The iPhone is for people like you! And I desperately URGE you to take advantage of the spell-checker. You're welcome! Anytime!

Magenta indeed. We all know what you meant.

Are... are you also American? Suing for a phone over availability, dude... that's our litigious domain!
No kidding. If you try this, I will sue YOU, slai, to keep our litigious American reputation intact!
