Windows Phone Thoughts: When Will We See More Than 16bit Colour?

I've been using a Dell Axim X50v lately (I switched back to it from the PDA2K) and as much as I love the screen, one thing about it still bothers me (other than the poor battery life): the fact that there's a crisp, high-contrast, beautiful VGA screen...capable of showing only 16-bit colour. For you non-math types, that's 64,000 colours. Odds are good that the computer you're sitting at reading this is displaying either 16.7 million colours (24 bit) or 4.3 billion colours (32 bit). Most computers have been at 24 bit colour or higher for the better part of a decade, so you may not remember what photos looked like in 16 bit colour...but I'm reminded of that every time I look at a photo or (especially) when I watch a video on the X50v. There just aren't enough colours to make the images/videos look like they're supposed to look. The colour banding is most evident with video files, but it's noticeable with photos as well - especially ones with a solid colour wall.

I have my doubts as to whether this is going to change anytime soon, because I don't think very many people notice/care about it. So let's satisfy my curiosity with a survey, shall we?
