    Removable battery, SD card, AND a headphone jack. They apparently kept all this for the G5, so that is good news, and hopefully the G6 will be the same.

      Yep, if it has all 3 then I'll be buying one.
      Removeable battery and sd slot are basic requirements for me though.

  2. qHD vs QHD vs QHD+ when we have QCIF and QVGA wtf! by KreAture · · Score: 3, Insightful

    Are we running out of letters?
    QVGA is quarter not quad.
    QCIF is quarter not quad.
    qHD is quarter and QHD is quad? Come on! You are doing this deliberately aren't you!
