Anyone seen/used one of the new PC120's yet?
They have that new "Bluetooth Technology".

A friend of mine just picked up a 120, it's a nice camera and I'm sure it will be fine in the air.
Regarding BlueTooth - I wouldn't get excited over that. It's a SLOW wireless protocol. Transferring video over BT would be nothing short of futile.

I wonder why they would put that into the camera with such bad performance numbers.

There's nothing wrong with that camera, I only looked at it briefly, but it appears to be nothing more than this years version of the PC110 or PC100. It's a fine camera. The BT isn't for transferring DV from camera to camera or camera to computer, it's for uploading digital pictures (stills) from your memory stick to a subscription Sony service, and probably more than that it's for marketing purposes. The camera still comes with a firewire interface for camera -> camera or camera -> PC transfers.
