Does anyone rekon SE will sort out the video for release date?
I meen someone at SE must have got the feeling that the video QCIF falls short of the competition and that it may be worth re-working it...
Could it be done?
Will it be done?

Tbh, 2x optical zoom isnt really gaining you much in terms of functionality, so im not really bothered about that, but its the video resolution that does bother me.
Yes, I fully agree. That's why the sharp 902 and 3 slipped my mind - optical zoom would be nice but I can wait.
The video is a shame, but I'm happy using my PDA for qvga video for the time being. By the time I buy a K750 replacement there may be an optical zoomed, qvga "K" phone available. I'm tending to think at this stage that it will be worthwhile getting the K800 as an interim phone before this super K becomes reality.
Time will tell. Now if I could stretch to a P990 + K800 I'd do it but I don't think that will be on the cards

Key pad looks very small and fiddly.
And lens case gives it a it of extra bulk it could do without perhaps.
Hope the screen is thumprint-proof!
Otherwise very good looking and probably a winner.

The keypad IS small and fiddly..

One sometimes press the wrong key. That is also true with regards to the softkeys, due to the large gap between the softkeys and the screen (it differs quite much between the K800 and K750).
The screen is, however, gorgeous...

902 isn't exactly a small low power consuming phone (part of the reason is probably the mechanical optical zoom, but it takes great pictures no doubt). Even K800 is pushing the limit in that deparment as well. ANd part of the
I think people in the west are more concerned about size, looks and power consumption that they are in the east (there features seem to matter more).
Basically, mecanical optical zoom I don't believe in as good solution for mobile phones. Liquid optics on the other hand is another story. Don't know how well they work, but they seem to have left the labs and are ready for the mobile market. Varioptic's introduced their solution at 3GSM this year back in February.

The K750 uses liquid optics for the auto-focus (but not zoom

)
Edit: oops, no it doesn't. It uses a lense that sits in a liquid bed, and the liquid bed adjusts the lense distance from the cmos. The liquid optics lense is where the lense is actually shaped from the liquid itself(varioptic). Amazing !
On size, K800 is much the same size as a K750, which is plenty small enough. My definition was meant in comparison to P990 sized handsets.
