(V7800) 5.2 mega pixel camera phone from ATI/Samsung

Very interesting for me at the moment as I'm saving up for a digital SLR camera (EOS 350D) which will set me back at least £500. If camera phones are catching up this fast, I might just wait to see what is available once I've got the cash to hand.
3x optical zoom is pretty good for a phone that size too.

There is a lot more to digital photography than image resolution. You won't get the lens quality and exposure/aperture/focus control on a camera phone that you would expect on a SLR. If you're serious about your photos (and I guess you are if you're about to spend half a grand on kit), then don't waste your time with the kiddies' toy, get the SLR.

true, I'm not particularly tempted by this phone at all, just using it to highlight the fact that camera phones are rapidly improving

That is a impressive camera Jon, is photography your hobby or do you do it for a living?
