The battery life on it is insanely long, the price is rather cheap and the guarantee on it two years. AS far as I know no other model on the market can match such qualities.

FG

PS: compare these with the Sony
Size with cover:
4.6” x 5.5” x 0.47”
Size without cover
4.6” x 5.5” x 0.39”
I've just fallen for it and ordered (with a great price for Europe if you buy in the UK)
