Lumiappaday #193: Feed Me Oil, demoed on the Nokia Lumia 800 XboxLive

  If you liked the game ‘Enigmo’ you’re going to love Feed Me Oil. It’s a similar principle but still quite vastly different, very entertaining and very challenging.

A few things to take from this video. First, towards the end you can see a very useful size comparison. The 808 PureView doesn’t look to be all that thick (except for the ginormous sensor bit).
