As mention previously, anything which requires the modification of the casing will be very expensive and so it's not planned. I'm sure however that people will have a go at hacking the unit and addition a module in somehow. Personally it's not a feature I care for, what with owning an SLR. I'm hoping to port some photo management software, maybe use ufRaw or similar. So you'd be able to hook up your SLR or compact. But obviously memory is tight on the device. --- G O Jones
Thanks for clearing that up. I had been waiting for an announcement of the camera resolution like a kid on christmas eve. Was really hoping for a 3 MP to replace my current phone or at least a 2 MP with video to better trounce the iPhone. I still have high hopes for the phone, though I can't help wondering how much the lack of a basic camera will affect mass adoption. Possibly very ignorant on my part, but I was under the assumption modifying the case to add a camera hole would be a very minor change (read inexpensive). Ie drilling (cutting out?) a hole and covering it with some transparent material like glass or plastic. I know zilch about how this works on a large scale, so it is entirely possible I'm wrong here.
