I had the K800 for about 2 weeks . . . I really enjoyed using it, however when I saw how the cam captures images . . . I was quite disappointed considering coming from a K750

Oh, no
Am I the only one who love K800/K810 so much?
Don't worry, I love my K800
I think using the term 'love' about a phone is just a tiiiiiiny bit disturbing.....
But I get (roughly) where you're coming from, I'm pretty pissed I lost mine!

JPEG compression? Did you forget to set it to Fine or something? I've had no issues with pictures destroyed by the compression. The overzealous noise reduction turning grass into a green mass and hair into plastic - yes, but not JPEG artifacts.
Sure the image performance at 100% isn't as good as the K750, but if you take a 3 MP picture from the K800 and scale it down to 2 MP, it kicks the crap out of the K750/W800 camera.

wrong, the N73 camera is amazing
Hahaha, are you kidding? Compared to the K800? Try taking a picture indoors. Or of something blue. Or at night:

The N73 camera is crap. I know, I own both.

I suggest you rub your eyes and take a deep look at those pictures taken with N73 again (just look at the smudged trees for instance in the first picure - not to mention the redicilous yellow color of the car)

You know, I do understand that mobile camera phones will never match a true digicam. But, I'm so tired of looking at pictures taken with this phone to find jagged edges everywhere and poor focus. My W800 just didn't suffer from this so it's fair to expect better from the K800. Sure the W800 was grainy in poor light but in full daylight it was great. And, it didn't produce photo's whereby outlines of objects don't look real. I have run tests between my old W800 (now my sons phone) and the K800 and the W800 usually wins when it comes to viewing photo's at full size on the screen. If just this one issue could be resolved I would be satisfied. All SE need do is change the JPG compression a bit. It's not like memory is an issue as I'm sure most will have bought a memory stick.
I am looking at what else is available and may well sell it if something else wet's my appetite. The biggest problem is that I am a fan of the SE interface.

we could expect camera driver mods for K800/K810 soon, don't worry as the image problem was just a software-oriented issue. everything about the focal length, aperture, shutter, sensor and lens reliability were well engineered by Sony Cybershot Division

Well I too have just got a K800i and all I can say is that it is much easier to use than my old M600i, which I hated!
Love the K800i, does everything you need, pretty basic but does it very well.

I feel the same way about the SE interface. Fortunately I think SE still has an edge on competitors when it comes to camera quality, but I agree with you about the compression. It's a poor compromise SE have made. It makes the K800 just a little better than the N73 (instead of the huge lead K750 had over the N70)
