They could have at least fixed it. It does not handle any type of lighting very well, except for extremely bright lighting. It takes way too long for the camera to take the picture once you click the "button". Any movement of the camera, even ever so slightly makes the picture blur. The GPS does not talk to you to give turn directions. There is a speaker on the phone, so why did they not use it? There is just not enough improvement in the new 3G iPhone to warrant paying the price for a new phone. Besides, Apple is still too damn controlling and they will never change. Therefore, I am patiently waiting for phones using the Google Android platform to come out, most likely next year. Ashley wrote:

It will be interesting to see what the reviews are like once the camera starts to roll out. Change wrote:

While the W series is heavy on music and akin to a dedicated media player, the C series is heavy on imaging. What they really need is to develop a premium product. maybe a WC series that would include both to compete with other phones out there. However a 8 megapixel camera on a cell phone is great news.

If it takes off will depend on the performance of the phone and the camera by themselves. The other 60 thousand dollar question is: How much will it cost? Apple's iPhone has a very decent camera and a top-notch cell phone. Tough to beat considering these two factors plus the recent low price. It’s an interesting approach.
