R1 in no mans land.

Sep 19, 2005

After having initial high hopes for the R1 it would seem that Sony has priced it at 2-3 hundred dollars more than the other P&S that it competes with! At $1000 you can get a DSLR, and all the perks that come with it over a P&S. I hope Sony reconsiders its position.
