Nikon Coolpix S550 - I Got One
Well I decided to get a camera for summer vacation as I’m ALWAYS borrowing my brothers and I went to about 4 stores before I found the Nikon Coolpix S550. Right from the get go the size and overall simple design caught my eye (I bought it in graphite black). Its about the same size as a pack of cigarettes (world smallest body on for a 10mp) and the controls on the back are insanely simple.
The only two drawbacks in the design are: that it feels a bit awkward in the hand, just cause its boxish, and it has a fairly small screen. Its only 2.5 inches (measured diagonally) but thats understandable since its so small. Anyway, I of course looked at the specs before I bought it.

Preview: Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 a super PDA. Well I haven’t gotten to hold one or even see one in person but just from the specifications and can tell you now that this is a whole lot of hardware in a small package. Considering what this phone is carrying “under the hood” it weighs a mere 5.57 ounces, or as much as an 80 gig iPod. As far as it’s size goes, it’s half an inch thick and about the same size as an iPod. Not only is it small but its beautiful.
The brushed steel is pretty easy on the eyes, it has the “curved slide” that angles the screen up, sorta like a banana. The buttons on it are nicely separated, which is good for people with big fingers. 
The screen is one of the best, it’s flush, bright, A TOUCH SCREEN and has a VERY high resolution480 x 800 to be exact. The stuff “under the hood” gets me excited.
