About us | Camera phones are quite possibly this season's hottest new gadget. Like many mobile-technology trends, camera phones originated in Japan, and are now hitting the western world about a year later. While many manufacturers and carriers had camera-phone plans prior to 2002, the revolution didn't really ignite until Japanese carrier J-Phone bet big on camera phones in the first half of the year, and immediately saw its sales (and profits) soar. Almost overnight, manufacturers and carriers around the world took note of J-Phone's success, and started or accelerated their own camera-phone plans. One common question about camera phones is "why do I need one?" The fact is, many people said the same thing about cell phones when they were first introduced. But once they used one, most people realized how useful it could be, and they quickly became ubiquitous and indispensable. Given the clear success of wireless voice, it certainly seems possible that wireless pictures could also be very successful. If the success of camera phones in Japan is any indication, camera phones could quickly become the new communication tool of choice. Generally, the idea is that you'll find more occasions to take pictures simply because you have your phone with you more often than you probably carry a camera. Having a camera phone really changes the entire meaning of "taking pictures". Most people only take pictures on special occasions. This is mostly due to the inconvenience of carrying a camera, and the hassle and expense of developing film. Digital cameras eliminate the film hassle, but camera phones really take the revolution much further, by allowing you to have a camera on you at all times, and share the photos instantly. In short, it makes visual communication an everyday thing, which is a pretty big paradigm shift when you think about it. So what are some scenarios where you might actually want to take a picture with your phone? There are a lot of different ways, and different people will surely find very different uses. In my two weeks carrying these four camera phones around, I found several occasions where I was glad I had them. |
