Hmmm why is the screen res so low for something that shoots HD vids?

i'll be sticking with my 900 as I dont really see anything on there pulling me in like the 900 did.

I'm pretty sure the SE Vivaz which shoots HD video also has the same screen res

Can't see any problem with the resolution in regard to video recording.

Guessing that it's down to it running on Symbian. They must not be increasing the resolution for the next gen symbian OS.

Why would you want/need dolby surround sound on a phone?

I wouldn't worry too much about the screen's resolution in relation to its video recording resolution, especially since the highest screen resolution currently available on a handset is 854 x 480, as its not as if handsets, or even standalone cameras, have a screen resolution to match their image capabilities.

This handset's specifications, while appealing, is becoming the defacto high-end standard with regard to top-tier camera phones yet to be released; let's just hope its quality matches its specifications.

And as for the leak, I would hazard a guess that it was no more a "leak" than a carefully executed PR move from Nokia themselves.
