The Streak's camera
Micro-review: the camera on the Dell Streak, though it has the same megapixel count, is not at all as good as the one on the iPhone 4. I think the pictures get over-compressed, the details are all... spludgy.
The master is a busy man with lots of important things to do.
Adjective: spludgy (comparative more spludgy, superlative most spludgy) Alternative form of splodgy

2002, Daniel Richler, Kicking Tomorrow He stamps down the stairs, leaving spludgy footsteps in the carpet behind him.
2004, Merle Thornton, After Moonlight Discourse within discourse within — deeper and deeper in the mud till it closes over your unsuspecting head, scarcely a rising spludgy bubble to be seen.

"An irregular-shaped splash or smear"
Sounds about right. The fine details are smeared.
Thanks.
