I myself feel that the appeal of the Android operating system in the camera is opening up the possibility to use the Android image processing applications are pretty much available. It should be recognized that there is no software in the camera that offers easy photo editing features and a sophisticated smartphone. Looks like we're a matter of time before there are other vendors that offer products with similar operating systems.
