I very much agree with that. U dont see everyone with a 5 megapixel camera everywhere and since the screen size is just 240x320 pixels (and thats large) those pics u take cant just be to display on the phone. I hope they have a 240x320 option to save memory for pics that would just be the background image.

This "phone" shows where the world is heading. We'll soon have one device that does EVERYTHING. I wonder what they would call it? :icon_conf
