Sounds really good, with many cameras in this category going at around 2-300 rather. Except the names of the colours, however. Ridiculously posh and incorrect (at least the blue and the pink), but maybe they have some research suggesting that's what people want...

I rather like the idea of having a Flamingo coloured camera; it wouldn't be very easy to lose! (And who would want to steal it?) "Cosmic Black"! How pseudosignificant is that? Otherwise, seems like an amazing specification for such a cheao(ish) camera.
