Samsung ST550, dual LCD screens!

I just found interesting article on the New York Times, talking about Samsung ST550, and I just wanted to share this link with you.
It's first time for me to see dual LCD screens - screens in both front and back of the camera - so I thought it would be interesting to you guys too.
Guess it's not for professionals, but it looks good for people who love self-portrait!
Take a look the link under

The ST500 and ST550 were announced back in August along with the Nikon Coolpix S1000pj (which has a built in projector). I think it was around the same time that Fuji "mentioned" the W1 which is a twin lens camera which shoots 3D images.

It'll be interesting to see how the Samsungs sell as the second screen really is a gimmick but that doesn't automatically make it a bad thing!
