Is there a 7135 w/camera in the near future?

I'd be satisfied if they could just get the phone to market!

 

Just an observation, but since the 7135 uses SD cards, you can effectively use any camera that suits you as long as it uses SD cards too. This means that you can have your choice of most digital cameras, which is FAR better than having to use exactly one camera supported by the phone vendor (at least in my opinion).

Maybe I missed a meeting or something, but every phone that I've seen has the camera as a discreet piece. Granted that I may have a wierd perspective, but even with those phones, they are still two things to carry from my perspective.

I'm actually starting to drift back to the component model, rather than looking for a single mega-device that does everything. I was originally looking for a device like the 7135, with even more features. I'm starting to think that I (and my firm) would be better served by a set of standard, interconnectable parts. Something like a V60x, a laptop, a PDA, a standard camera (or three), a GPS, etc.

Kyocera has been working with Veo to make the Veo SDIO camera work with the 7135. They demonstrated it at CTIA.

 

I haven't monkeyed with a Veo Traveler for an age, so these comments may be way out of date. As I last saw it, the pictures were stored in a proprietary format on the Palm, although the conduit would convert them to JPEG files on the PC or Mac. This was kind of a pain, since we wanted to be able to send the photos directly from the Palm. Is this still the case?
