Creative CardCam?

Anyone have the new credit card-sized camera from Creative? How is it?

I've checked out the specs both on the web site and on the box of the product:

  • CMOS sensor
  • 8MB of integral memory stores 26 photos at 1280 x 960 resolutions (interpolated) or 101 photos at 640 x 480 resolutions
  • Built-in rechargeable Lithium battery that allows approximately 500 photos when fully charged

I'm interested in the camera due to its size, and I don't intend to use it for serious photography, but the specs look very suspicious/dodgy: they don't mention the actual resolution of the sensor, and the lack of a flash is a bit of a dissapointment.

What do you guys think?

BTW I saw another "pen-sized" camera of a brand that I don't recall (probably some cheap one), with 128MB RAM, 1280x960 res (without flash) and video capture too, all for a price cheaper than the card cam. Sounds too good to be true, so I gave it a pass....
