Oh joy.. From one lossy compression method in a camera to another 
slightly improved one for a device that you can't really afford to lose 
any quality with in the first place... No thanks. It is bad enough now 
where your only option is taking 1-2 uncompressed images or 50 crappy 
ones, adding an 'improved' crappy version instead of at least making some 
attempt at a lossless compression method won't imho do anything to 
correct this flaw in cameras. Now maybe with something like PNG, I would 
still only be able to take 25 pictures, but they would still be *good* 
and complete images, not something you can apply several PhotoShop 
plugins to that do nothing but turn a sharp, crisp, but screwed up image 
into a blurry, eye watering slightly less screwed up appearing final 
result. :(
