It probably makes more sense to buy an iPhone now, anyway, since they dropped the price. After all, you get a phone, camera, and web access (w/o needing wi-fi), for only $100 more.
Nikon will now lead the DSLR market for the next 5-10 years, at least. The D3 has begun the full-frame revolution. Nikon has reclaimed their rightful position as the king of photography fanboy-dom.
Let's not forget Nikon (and I'll admit Canon) have vastly superior lenses compared to Sigma. Any way you slice it - or, pixelize it - it ain't worth no $1600.
Here's the template for a generic review about any Panasonic camera:
"This camera has great features, and we especially love the wide angle zoom. The movie mode is a nice bonus for the YouTube generation. Unfortunately, for anything above ISO 200, there is such excessive noise that we can only give this camera a qualified 'Recommend'."
Give my boys some props. As someone who graduated from the BME dept at JHU a decade ago, it makes me so proud. This really takes gadgets to the next level.
futurepastnow, you may have been able to build something a lot cheaper, but not everyone has your skills! If you look at the price for a diskless Infrant Ready NAS (which is the obvious competition), it's about the same price, and we have no idea about performance. Maybe it's faster, for all you know.
"All of these new nettops have me intrigued. I'm looking for a small, quiet and cheap PC to replace my aging tower in my home office, and all it really needs to do is load Microsoft Office, check email and surf the web. Is there a particular nettop that's better (or a better value) than another? I know it's a rather new segment, but hopefully someone has taken a chance on one already. Thanks!"
