Sony just launched the new DSC-KW1 special page to promote the camera to women. There is also a newly posted official KW1 video on Youtube. But our wifes will not be happy to know that there is still no preorder and price info yet. Although I guess price doesn’t matter when you have such a cute pink perfume-camera gadget in your bag :)
