I love the aesthetics of this camera. If they realized the potential of this camera, I think I'd be able to get over its lithium battery....although that battery needs to take many times more than 200 pictures.

I really do like the GPS feature, and hope this becomes a common feature. GPS really shouldn't eat up that much battery life. My handheld Garmin lasts almost all day on a pair of AAA nimh, and it has a screen and many other gps features to power, whereas the gps in this camera merely needs a position.
