I never heard of Shiho as a touchscreen device, and shiho is not UIQ as it will use A250 ( OSE A200 update )
I don't see a point of having touchscreen only for touch focus, maybe that rumour got to the fact that Shiho will be some how similar to Viewty like said above...
having a touchscreen layer will decrese the contrast/brightiness of the display and this is not good for flag ship imaging device specially if that touchscreen only meant to be used as touchscreen !!

Hope this a250 will be better than the a200 when it came out in the k850 LATE and UNSTABLE.

well, to be a step up from the K850 it would have to have TS in my opinion.
1 because of touch focus
2 because of the touch buttons on the K850 (what other improvement to that is there? I know ppl who think K850 is touchscreen cus of that lol).
Still, keep in mind that for someone really interested in imaging, touch focus sounds almost childish. Its not better than auto focus, its not really that much more practical, its basically a gimmick. |

Well, yeah, I'm not really jazzed about touchfocus as much as I'm jazzed about the remote possibility the phone may be touchscreen.
The Cyber-shot range is the only one left not to have had a touch screen incorporated into any of its devices so I think its long over due.

Nah, Shiho is just a slider with a big screen. No touchscreen. It will, however, feature a focus point grid (a la C702, C902).

Shiho doesn't need a touchscreeen, in fact, I'd be happier without it. I'm not a huge fan of touchscreens, but I have played with the G900 and the touch focus is really cool! That's the ONLY factor that could make me want a touchscreen. I a looking forward to the slider form factor... I'm getting bored of candybars (they're all I've used).... BRING BACK THE SWIVEL!
I have a dig bick

I think interface overhauls, autorotate, gesture control, touchscreen, finger touch navigation, multitouch capabilities are all interaction techniques which will be a big part of the future of mobile technologies. I want a touchscreen by now. |

Rather, more powerful than LED. Not as powerful as xenon. |

xenon can be too powerful. Any more powerful and it would highlight peoples skeletal structure! Photo flash is better in some ways as it doesn't need a long charge.

X1 sample images look fantastic! Maybe SE have finally got the software behind the hardware working well. |
