Anyone else had to immediately think of that truck in Knight Rider (I think it was called Goliath) when he read the headline?:-)

Depends on who "they" are. If "they" are the manufacturers, then be sure that they got it a long time ago. Unfortunately they only listen to that other group of "theys", namely the customers. And customers care only about megapixels, similar to how they only care about megaherz when it comes to computers...
...I played the original Metroid on the NES...and I loved it...along with Ikarus...Zelda...Ice Breaker was great too;-) Maybe I should get a console again:-)
Thanks, I've known this sample for some time. A friendly guy over at dpreview.com provided some more samples in the forum (I won't link them directly or he'll probably be mad).
But what I'm looking for are examples showing the strengths and weaknesses of this camera. Show me the full range of optical and digital zoom and how the picture gets worse with the digital zoom. Show me a movie in low light or artificial light conditions.
This is the first "review" of this camera which I have encountered and I have been looking for some time. Unfortunately this review isn't very technical or thorough.
I'd love to get additional user experiences/reviews/... which concentrate on the technical side a bit more...
Please put some sample movies / pictures online. Specially showing the optical/digital zoom capacity. And maybe some low light movies to see its performance there?
I also have a question: It got 5.8 times optical zoom and 10 times digital zoom. In video mode the camera only uses 0.3 MP of the available 4 MP (probably a bit more for the image stabilizer?). Anyways, when using digital zoom in video mode, will it simply use the remainder of the MP to do the digital zoom and thus provide a "loss free" digital zoom? Or is it similar to image shooting using digital zoom, where the resulting picture is blurred?
That gives motivation to move on to JPEG-2000 and other superiour formats. Of course, those are patented as well already, so let's just get out a pencil and a piece of paper and forget the whole Internet thing...
Of course, someone will point me to pencil and paper patents now...;-)

...comas would have been more appropriate when talking about shatner... ;-)
Can't the mouse be powered by you moving it around? Similar to those (swatch) watches which use this principle?

The more I see of capitalism, the more I'm glad that I'm content to work from home earning "enough to get by".
... *sigh* ;-)
Indeed, I envy Ed Black for this excellent deal as well
...yes, I would pretend this as well ;-)
...so, is there an engine based on electricity which works both inside the atmosphere and in vacuum?
...no more listening in for the evil nations (TM) ;-)

...someone was arrested for selling shit! ...oh..wait..
...for an example of such "user errors", please consult this demonstration movie (definitely turn your audio on!):

Uh..should have read the review before posting this... *sigh*

I've been looking for user experiences/reviews on this little gadget for weeks. Many thanks!
Given the responsivness of their site it rather seems to be a story on "...slashdot's new Virgin killer" ...
What I want to see is some of these babies aimed at giant solar sails which provide accelration to a spaceship ...
...indeed. But I would have prefered a full size image of her!
My birthday really was on the 14th of September, you insensitive clod! ;-)
What are they using? GPS? Antenna Triangulation?
...
Probably the last one.
I took a look at their website, but couldn't find any hints
My birthday is today you insensitive clods!
All hail our water walking, Jesus-like, overlords! ;-)
Vector-based JPEG format anyone? ;-)
