I have to disagree with Phil to a certain extent... I know for a fact that the advanced amateur set of photographers (like myself) have been begging for a compact camera with all of these features, especially wide angle and raw support. Unfortunately I don't think this camera/manufacturer will be able to deliver given it's past performance in their other digital cameras. I would love to be wrong here. Now if Canon, Nikon and others would jump on board as well I would be first in line. Canon for one has been steadily removing raw support from the few non-DSLR models that had it over the years, presumably in an attempt to make folks switch to DSLR. I love my 5D but there are times when I want a small camera with the same or at least somewhat similar image quality as a DSLR. Even just to have raw support would be a huge plus. Sure, it's too much to ask but one can dream.
