I dont c the point of going tht high for a camera. I mean, u might as well just get a better sony digital camera for a cheaper price. As in, what would u gain by buying a mobile with an integrated 7mp camera which i'm assure will eat the battery and the memory as against buying a digital camera. I c it's just a waist of money; probably each pic will be around 2MB in size - thts my personal opinion
wht do u think?

You are right, @k0rrupter.
What's the use getting excited over 7MP camera phone? You might as well get a good digital camera. I have HP R707 5.3MP digital camera, and I have never changed the setting to take pictures beyond 3MP. Why? Because as an amateur photographer, 3MP is just enough for me, and the more the megapixels, the more memory space on the card the pictures will take.
So, think twice before you get excited over those large megapixels camera phones. |

I would not mind having a 7mp camera if i had enough memory for storage, a phone with at least 256mb/512mb built in memory would be required i feel.
