I'm kinda doubting that it'll blow away the top camera-phones. I'd hate to be coming in the P&S market right now. Maybe this is Canon or Nikon under a new guise trying to move some P&S.

For 200 bucks you can get a ring flash adapter or put a dent on a real ring flash.

But this has some serious fun potential (if sharp and high res aren't a main priority). I can see the ring flash being pretty cool for some indoor photography. the flash might not be harsh on face at all. For macro, unless that lens is nice and sharp, might be wasted on a small sensor compact like this, even with that flash.

I do like that a 24mm fixed lens is on a pns though, thats ballsy. + viewfinder = bonus points.

If they made a big sensor version of this, they might have a cult hit on their hands.
