I'm not basing sony at all! I would say the same thing about certain fuji models and probably the f50fd when the final production model is released. Does that mean I'm a fuji basher? (no, Fuji's f31fd is my favorite compact camera). I don't like that sony camera because I can't find ANY pictures that look good that come from it! Is there something wrong with that? + most user reviews disliked it anyway. I don't care what steves digicams or that other one says. I care what REAL PHOTOGRAPHERS AND ACTUAL PHOTOGRAPHS SAY. Go to DPreview or fred miranda or something and see for yourself but please only take into account reviews from people who appear to have an abundance of knowledge. General consumers/non-experienced photographers thoughts, magazines, and websites that get special incentives for praising certain products should only be taken with a grain of salt.
Anyway, here's a cool video. It gives you some things to consider when choosing between compacts.

There's nothing funny about me. You quite intentionally wrote off a camera that you didn't even know the most basic facts about, using incorrect information to justify this to the OP.
I don't know any more than the reviews i linked to about it, but other than someone whining about it, and some unspecified references to sample photos, you haven't presented a shred of evidence that suggests you've followed your own advice, or more importantly, provided something useful for the OP
The only reason i bothered looking for reviews on it was because i had a vague idea that you were full of it when you were decrying the fact it was 12mp, and given the prevalence of 'brand fanboys/haters' on the net, a whiff of bulldust rather flavours my attitude to someone's very passionate advice on a product. If you want to offer advice that doesn't make you look like you've got an agenda, try getting your facts right, and actually providing some evidence (a few links to these awful samples would have been more than enough).
I'll help you, gratis.
