Yes, the radical redesign would be necessary, hence my comment about "the optics to support" the sensor.

Regarding the comments about lack of auto focus, I'm not so sure this is a bad thing. A camera with fixed focus is always ready to shoot immediately while auto focus always takes some time, plus that auto focus requires good lightning. Some auto focus cameras lack focus assist LEDs so these are very difficult to operate in low light situations. One example is my i-mobile 902. It has auto focus, Sony 5 MP CCD ICX495 sensor (also used in Canon's 5 MP P&S cameras), but no focus assist LED! It shoots extremely good night photos but only of typical landscape shots where infinity focus is OK.
