Thoughts on Panasonic Lumix CM1?

[tk7x]

The Lumix CM1 is coming to US. For those of you who missed it, it's basically a point and shoot camera first and an Android after. 20 MP 1" MOS with Leica 28mm f/2.8 - f/11 lens. Like, that thing sounds impressive. Anyone else excited about this thing?

Looks pretty cool, but my concern would be the portability as a phone. I don't always want to have a high end camera with me, but I do always want to have my phone--so would I want to lug that thing around as my primary phone? It was the same problem with the Galaxy Zoom as well.

Very excited. Id buy one but its out of my price range.
I believe Panasonic is using the same sensor as found in the Sony RX 100.
The picture quality should be excellent.
It even has manual focus.
If the specs are right it has full manual controls including aperture.

The size doesn't bother me. I think they did well size wise considering that it uses a 1" sensor.

The negatives as far as I see it are the battery life probably wont be good enough.
Its sad that battery technology hasn't progressed any farther then it has.
Its really holding back advances in phone technology.

The other possible negative is their any software to do in camera raw editing.
