I agree 100% with Coomac. Sure it would be nice if we had a Digital SLR with
us at all times but that is completely impractical. Unless you are some sort
of weirdo chances are you are not going to be carrying that large camera
around with you everywhere you go.


How rude :-)  And also unobservant - subcompact point-and-shoots are
coming with 10MP sensors and 10x zoom lenses with IS these days, and
they're about the size of the larger phones, and have *hugely* better
quality than even the N90 - and lots of people *do* carry them everywhere.


I do not want to have another device that can get stolen, dropped, or left, and has to be charged, and have data transferred off it.
I do not want a complex camera with moving lenses.

I want a camera that I can take pictures of price labels and goods in a shop, so I can comparison shop between (say) floor-tiles, without having to write down stuff. I want a camera that can take notes while I dissasemble stuff, to see which bolt went where.
I want a camera to add thumbnails of people to contact apps.

99% of the time, when I want a camera, VGA with a LED flash would do just fine.
