transparent screen as viewfinder huh? how far should the fone be from the face? if the camera is nearer to the face you will see larger objects and if farther away you will capture smaller objects??

a good example is making a square shape out of your 2 hands and if you look nearer to the hole you see more objects thus "zoom out" if you look farther from the square you see less objects thus "zoom in"? how does the fone know your head's position?

There's a design flaw, I think...

What if you want to apply lighting adjustments to the picture to be taken? Can you still see it with that viewfinder?

Breaking the phone into small, worthless pieces the first time you're sitting down (cos you'd be wearing it in your back pocket): Pricless!!

Nice idea but as already said, it's just not that practical.
