I got the Sanyo yesterday, and tried it out today.

On a 50" plasma, with my nose to the screen, it reeks "consumer". The sensor is noisy, which gives fits to compression algorithms. They have the "i-frame beating" problem that is an issue for many 264 implementations. Interior shots can be darn noisy. I haven't played with it outdoors much, but I expect much less noise in a bright environment.

With the right version of Quicktime (7.1.6 on Windows), I can take the SD card right out of the camera, pop it into the computer and play video.

On my 20" computer display, it actually looks pretty decent -- downright HD-ish.
