Very tempting. I am a photo guy, and the pureview takes a dump on pretty much any phone out there right now...

But how viable is the Windows 8 OS on these phones? Hmmm, if Iphone 5 underwhelms, might have to take a serious look at this.

Any one excited about this possibilities of this phone?

If Nokia manage to engineer some of their pureview tech into a slimmer chassis, consider me interested.

Will be interesting to see how much of that they can squeeze down.

These phones tend to look terrible. Nobody buys this stuff.

well certainly your average girl (lets be real they like "cute phones" / casual iphone user wouldn't be too interested. But I have been looking for a PS replacement for ages, (my sony h9v is so big in my pocket).

This could be the "holy grail" between camera and phone. If done right with Windows 8 could be a big hit IMO.

I am very interested in a Nokia PureView. I like to take a lot of pictures of my kid, so the 41 megapixel sensor and the rich recording would be quite nice. Hopefully they offer it in a screen size around 4.7 inches.
