Well, it's been a busy week since my camera arrived, trying everything out.
It does seem to work as described and has produced some good pictures.
However, my pictures don't compare to those on show at the Filckr group: http://www.flickr.com/groups/littlecyclops/
More of the camera's features are fixed than expected - the shutter speed seems to be fixed at 1/125th of a second and the ISO (film speed) at 100 - but it still seems to cope in daylight or bright room light.
The photo size and other parameters are set in a file called "setup.ini" on the microSD card. The battery is rechargeable via USB and if you have a Windows PC you can set the camera's internal date and time through the USB connection too.
An instruction manual is being crowd sourced at:

I'll try to write more when I get the time.
In the meantime there's also news of a US Boffin Bodger camera at:
