Samsung's i85 PMP camera: aces the i7's swivel, adds a megapixel

Here ya go, another 8 megapixel shooter only this time, it's Samsung doing the honors. The new 0.8-inch thin i85 brings the PMP action like their i7 without the swiveling novelty of that rear LCD. Instead, the brushed aluminum, i85's 3-inch LCD remains fixed with the sound provided by the built-in stereo SRS 3D speakers or 2.5-mm headphone jack. Unfortunately, the i85 supports WAV and MP3 audio and MPEG, AVI, MOV, WMV and ASF video files only after conversion via bundled software. Rounding out the specs are a 5x optical NV zoom lens, Samsung ASR image stabilization, ISO 1600 sensitivity, 256MB of onboard memory with SDHC expansion, and a maximum shutter speed of 1/2,000 sec. Available this Fall for $349, list.

What's the sensor dynamic range?

Does it have voice photo tagging technology? That is allow you to say what you're taking a picture of and then (either in camera or offline) do a speech to text conversion.

Where exactly is the lens?

Nevermind, I get it now. It looks odd with most of the front empty.
