I hear that.. the iphone was the coolest thing in the world when it first came out.. now its just sitting back doing nothing special.. if they're going to upgrade the camera they should have an 8 mp camera with optical zoom

Most people don't really care about a phone's camera since most people have digital cameras. And the iPhone is still one of the top selling phones. I have a 3GS and the fact that they threw in a better camera really doesn't make me want to buy one at all. Even an 8 megapixel camera wouldn't sway me. Most people would still buy the Droid if it was 3.2 megapixels and RIM has been selling a lot of phones lately and I don't think any of their phones even have a 5 megapixel camera.

They spent the $ up front to be on the bleeding edge and then reaped the benefits. Although they did fall behind I can't say they did a bad job. Financially this was the best decision to make for Apple. I think the next step will be to move the iPhone over to additional networks, but I think Tmobile would have the same challenges AT&T had. They don't have a network that can support the mass data usage. Verizon would have a lot of issues, but I don't think they'd be as bad due to how CDMA works and their infrastructure.

That's pretty hilarious considering numerous sources will tell you the camera on the iPhone is far better and more usable then many other phones. The Droid would be the first that comes to mind. That's pretty amuzing to me considering the Droid has a 5 megapixel camera and the iPhone has a 2 megapixel camera. But hey, don't take my word for it. Do a little Google search and check out Engadget reviews for yourself.

I wish the could come out with a 12.1 mp camera with face detection and 10x optical zoom but hey 5mp's are better than nothing it would be a nice addition though LOL

I don't think you can speak for other people about the DROID.

Apple is not stupid, we are. Of course apple could create a device with a 10mp camera, over 1 ghz of processor and 164 gigss of memory. But if they keep releasing the 2g, 3g, 3gs, 4g, and so on they can just keep making small tweaks and guess what?... the masses will continue to buy it. Thats why i'll be buying a phone like the passion (if it is real)- a device that is actually trying to meet its full potential

Yea they could do all the above... If you want a phone that resembles the likes of a Zack Morris eske phone. You can't cram everything into a small package.

iPhone is just not about camera. Its about the user friendliness and about a million, if not, billion applications available, helping you accomplish nearly everything you need. Merry Christmas! (lol, I know, I'm late)
