>Mark Roberts Maybe, but then again the average consumer was fairly happy with one-time use plastic lens disposable cameras. What did they see clearly there? I say again that the single factor a consumer understands, more than any other, is size, i.e. mega-pixel count. They do so in exactly the same manner, that given the choice and purchasing power (and room-size), consumers will choose a 52" over "48" over 36" over 32" over 25" over 19" television sets. Many people, myself included sometimes, purchase an item for what they imagine or intend to do with it, versus how they end up using it most of the time.
