Camera phones catching on

Vancouver Sun:

The trend toward wireless cameras embedded in cellular phones is accelerating

According to the company that was first into the market in this country, Rogers AT&T, the trend is apparent.

"If we look carefully at what causes the breakthrough, it's actually when the number of phones that a given carrier is shipping becomes predominantly camera phones," said David Neale, Rogers AT&T's vice-president of new product development. "What you're starting to see is that we're adding more and more camera phones to our list."

This is especially interesting given last week's warning from Kodak that they will miss their earnings number.

One thing to think about is the new and interesting applications which will come about as the result of these camera phones. For clues on that one ask your kids!
