Thanks for that link, perfect!!
I also tried Vit's mixed driver, and took some comparison shots, and I had very bad results with low light indoor shots.
Shots from DM 3.5/3.8 came out better.. but then again, the CBE 4.1 driver has so many options to configure, I would really like some info from Vit on what settings he used to produce those wonderful pictures.
I really do not think it will get any better than DM 3.5 for ease of use vs quality of images.
I guess I need to ask myself that..
Do I want to use the CBE 4.1+DM 3.5 mixed driver, and have to fiddle with a lot of settings all the time?
or
Do I want more of a point and shoot driver that is easier to use, but less configurable?
I think, ease of use maybe, but i am not 100% sure really yet..
i would like to see what Vit has to say, about what settings he uses for that mixed mode driver to produce the pictures he posted.

@ all:
Sorry about not providing full explanations on how to use the Cybershot mixed driver, but I am really in a rush this week and, as its interface is the same as the original Cybershot Xperience 4.1 that has already been posted right here @ this thread, I thought that you would figure them out at ease.
Plainly, what I do when I use that particular mixed driver is trying to take every single night shot with Twilight Landscape mode on, even indoor shots (yeah! manual focus works in this mode, too!). Then I select the menu that offers color tunning. Once I get all the colors as I wanted, it's a only matter of getting the phone still and shooting with the self timer on (Indoor shots without flash come out more or less good as with any other driver - I guess that's the C905 camera's Achille's heel).
Here it goes, in my opinion, the goodies about that driver:
- It's possible to change the focus manually even in Twilight Landscape mode, which offers locked focus at infinite by default. So you can shoot any near object with that awesome slow shutter speed;
- Color fine tuning. That's handy when you face complex lighting scenarios;
- Manual contrast;
- Manual saturation.
And what I don't like about that driver:
- Portrait shots with flash get way too much saturation that I could not get rid of.
- Manual ISO doesn't seem to work as good as with DM 3.5 (and hence with my mixed driver that includes some of its set ups)
- As EV controls only the values for its new features, you cannot change Exposure Compensation anymore (at least I could not figure out a way of doing that). So you end up with the same shutter speed for a fixed ISO value (and there's no way of using Spot Metering in Twilight mode to overcome that problem).
=> Summing it up, I guess that it could be a 'serious business' option when shooting @ NIGHT (both indoor and outdoor) with SLOW SHUTTER SPEED and NO FLASH under COMPLEX LIGHTING. Mind you that almost all my nightshots came from around my house; I will try to take some shots from somewhere else with even more different set ups than I did before, in order to provide you with more convincing arguments of how many options of fine color tuning we've got with this one. Besides, I guess IT CAN BE A GREAT DAYLIGHT SHOOTER, too. It's just a matter of getting used to the interface. I've got some great shots with DM 3.5, as you can see within my Picasa page, but some of them came out too saturated. Besides, I will not get the opportunity to come back at that place so soon, so I won't be able to offer a direct comparison based on thas location. I will try to take some more outdoor shots with it as soon as I can and then post them here. I am also in debit with some of you for some indoor shots, but I'll post some soon.

More night shots and some night indoors @ a good old snooker bar. I reckon this is the best we can get with C905 when shooting indoors (untill someone figure out how to reach ISO 64 as for daylight pics in Auto mode):
