We have the sensor size as 5.6mm x 4.2mm, is that correct?  This is between 1/2.5 and 1/2.7 according to dpreview: http://www.dpreview.com/learn/?/Glossary/Camera_System/sensor_sizes_01.htm

Very cool. I've been comparing this with the TX5. Key diffs are that the TX7 has a 3.5 vs 3.0 screen and can do 1080p video vs 720p. Key advantage of the TX5, otoh, is that it's ruggedized.
