Its ‘good enough for shots of your kids in the park’IMHO, and that is a benchmark for a lot of people, I took a great ‘first time on a bike’ picture of my son with mine..

But roll on 5MP.. 3.5 in the front for video conferencing..

Firstly, how about just building them to a higher quality? My side buttons have already fallen off and I need a replacement. Secondly how about adding a flash like 90% of other phones out there, is this really that hard? A super bright LED hooked up to the battery.. even the iPhone can make room for that!</p> I have a 3g iPhone already and I have a few comments about this.

I also agree with the fact we need a better lens and auto focus, heck throw a good flash with that too. I also don't care shot increasing the thickness a bit to support that. I want a phone, iPod, email, Internet, and a GOOD Camera on one device. I don't mind paying more than the $199 that the 3g was. Heck I paid $599 for the original. Throw in a good camera, and I would pay that again.</p> I second that, anything less than 5 is terrible, 5 is pretty much the norm.

I don't think the problem with the iphone's camera is the number of MP, it is the lens and lack of autofocus, macro mode and so on and so forth. Before I owned my iphone I never thought that camera on phones where usefull but now with the ease of using the pictures you take, I just wish for a better camera in it.</p> I want to second Mile.

All the apps that use the camera are useless because the camera is so terrible, space isn't an issue, and if they need to make it a little thicker nobody will care if it can take good pics and video. By the end of this year 5 and 8 mp cameras will be the norm on other high end phones, LG and Samsung have fitted phones with decent sized lenses as well, and their picture and video taking capability are pretty impressive.</p> <p>Anything less than 5 with a good lens would be disappointing..</p> Yea, with what the competition is offering in iPhone-like phones, they really need to give us a real camera and video recording.

Or just a 5 in the back. I can't see the iSight going from 1.5 to 5, that just doesn't make sense. What practical use would you have with a 5 meg iSight camera? We will just have to wait and see I guess. anyone think Apple would comebout with a stand alone camera? That wouldn't make sense either to me, younwould then have to walk around with two seperate products, when the Iphone could easily be a good quality camera.... DAMN I hate waiting!</p> Adam….
