Macworld article

not only are Samsung showing their SGH-i310 with 8gb hard drive but it seems they also showed the SCH-B600

Other features include MPEG4 video recording, a music player that plays MP3, AAC and AAC+ files, TV output, a document viewer and Bluetooth and Pictbridge printing.

btw, this one is only CDMA compatible

just found another pic



can't see the point of such high resolution myself. I find the 2 megapixel in K750 to be adequate for quick snaps but I guess I am interested to see what improvement the 3.2 megapixel in the next phones will offer

Wonder what the 'stand-alone' digital camera manufacturers make of the rapidly-advancing megapixel race in the mobile phone industry...

They'd probably start fitting mobile phones in their cams. Lol

HiRISE

The High Resolution Imaging Science Experiment (HiRISE) camera consists of a 0.5 meter reflecting telescope, the largest of any deep space mission, and has a resolution of 1 microradian, or 0.3 meter at a height of 300 km. (For comparison purposes, satellite images of Earth are generally available to a resolution of 0.1 meter, and satellite images on Google Maps are available to 1 meter.) It can image in three color bands, 400-600 nm (blue-green or B-G), 550-850 nm (red) and 800-1000 nm (near infrared or NIR).

Red color images are at 20,264 pixels wide (12 km in a 300 km orbit), and Green-Blue and NIR are at 4048 pixels wide (1.2 km). HiRISE's onboard computer reads out these lines in time with the orbiter's ground speed, meaning the images are potentially unlimited in height. Practically this is limited by the onboard computer's 28 Gb memory capacity. The nominal maximum resolution of red images is 20,000 × 40,000 pixels, or 800 megapixels and 4,000 × 40,000 pixels (160 megapixels) for the narrower images of the B-G and NIR bands. A single uncompressed image will use 16.4 Gb.
