Anyone know any additional info prior to the release...

Seems a bit strange...

"Lumix Phone, containing a 13.2 megapixel CMOS sensor and a 3.3-inch VGA LCD*. It will be the same size as the iPhone, only twice as thick, at 17.7mm."

Ummmm
Sounds about the size of my Droid 2..
13mp ??
How big is the sensor..??
I guess only ISO 100 is usable..

Wow, it actually doesn't look bad at all. Imagine if they could stuff a 4/3 sensor in it! 😉

hehe.. I can just imagine that japanese software they're gonna build into it. Menus upon menus upon menus upon menus. Like a nikon DSLR.

Actually I'm glad they're taking it to the next level with the whole camera phone thing. My iphone 4's camera is surprisingly good - at least as good in IQ as my 4 year old canon point and shoot. The best thing about it is that it's always on me.
