Strange, but really interesting and intriguing idea.

Cool, it's basically an RX100 with the body/LCD.

That's fascinating. Since it's wifi, I wonder about the potential for bystanders hacking the image stream?

Seems like it's a bit limited/specialized given the 10-36mm focal length. Interesting that you can uncouple the two components and use the phone as a remote-with-screen ...

It's a great idea that's sure to go over very well with the life-publishers, but they've aimed a bit too high. Zeiss glass? Entirely unnecessary for the target market.

$500 is far too steep for people to just plop it in their purse or messenger bag just in case. Priced around $150, they wouldn't be able to make enough of them, but while it's a great idea and looks to be high quality, I think they've slightly missed the mark.

I'm thinking it might be perfect for the inside of a big-cam. :)

I think Slippy should fly down there and you two should put together a mock you tube ad with an android phone and your lens.
