The latest one shot camera...

Wow, it's "craptacular!"

What a piece of junk. At least we know we'll still get work shooting "real" panoramics.

Iwould even say that this sort of things are needed on the market so people can see the diffrence between our work and other panorama makers

Well, it's certainly not going to compete at the quality end of the market - and yet.... Given the cult status of the Lomo and Lomography I can see a market for it - provided it is cheap enough.

It will probably even take some work from the real estate shooters - but who wants to do that anyway - probably the answer to all those posting to this list with the whinge "I'm starting a real estate business - please tell me how to do it"

If it was really cheap I might buy one just for happy snaps and if they can get it into a mobile phone then they are made.

yes, sadly, as a gadget junkie, I'd probably buy one too.

Count me in!

Quality is awfull but I love gadgets. If it had a higher resolution sensor it might be half alright...

Looks to me (and I dont know much) that the low resolution coupled with the plastic bubble cause the quality to just look... well.. a bit naff.

Does it come with a hat? Has to have a hat so you can wear it on your head. Sort of like Al Frankin as a remote news reporter with a satellite dish on a football helmet.

Wear it into a bar and do good with the ladies....

I say attach a parachute to it, fire it in the air and have it trigger a few times on the way down. Just make sure it's not too windy..
