But this kind of publicity made me want to check out more from Mamyia.

picturs quality is just not pixels ....
ex. if you have a good 4 mpx camera the pictures can be much better than in a 6 mpx camera ..

Picture quality and picture resolution are 2 things altogether ! For the salesman in your local store CCD-resolution is a easy and convenient way to convince a customer to get into a deal. The Mars-rovers have a resolution of 1MP ! Yes thats right ONE MP. Why the pictures are so sharp is because of the custom zoom lens ($100000+) Also this 22+MP camera is using a larger then normal "proprietary size" CCD chip.So the lens is not standard ! I wonder how many they are going to sell and how much is going to cost if I want to fit it with a decent custom made lens ?(if I can find someone how can build a lens in that size)

While the above post has a point, I still thikn that image resoloution is the deciding factor in quality. After all, the higher resoloution, the closer to the actual thing it becomes... I can't wait until we have the technology to colour atoms, and therefore print in FULL resoloution, meaning it has the same resoloution as real life...
However, the problem is what resoloution the camera would be able to see... We would have to use some kind of portable electron microscope/camera that can take the electrons's movements into account (light and therefore colours are just exited electrons returning to their original state after being hit with a form of energy [often light from another source...])
Now that we have the physics lesson out of the way... Yes, I want one of these cameras, but so far i'm happy with my far-less-than-real-life resoloutoin p800 camera....
