Enough with the camera

[PDA Player]

Don't get me wrong... I love the camera on my NX series, and the idea of bluetooth on a new PDA is very exciting too, but I think 2 mega pixels is a little excessive... I already have a good digital camera... what I'd really like to see is a nice fast, slim clie with a big screen and built in WIFI support... now that would really blow my mind. ; )

I agree....too many "combo units" usually means you get a mediocre bit of everything and nothing that is specifically excellent in it's class. (The ol' jack of all trades master of none scenario)

That's why I like my 665 - it does the few things that I need very well. (Hi Res colour, MP3, slim footprint.)

Do you guys with the N series with camera actually use the camera? I have a 4 MP Canon G2 for when I want to take pictures and couldn't imagine any situation where I would use my clie for that except for maybe taking evidence pictures at the scene of an accident, or something else unexpected when I don't have my *real* camera with me.

So is there going to be a "non-camera" version of the new NZ series? I agree that the camera is more of a wow factor, good only for catching those spur of the moment shots if you are carrying your PDA with you. I also have good digi cam that I enjoy using, not to mention it has many more camera specific settings allowing for excellent picture taking and adjusting to all types of lighting conditions. I can see how the camera/pda combo would be sort of convenient in the NR series, then the NX which was a little bigger, but the NZ is too big to be carried around like a true PDA so it is even more impractical as a camera. Just my thoughts of course. Im sure there will be holsters for the NZ so people can lug it around on their hip.:)

I like the idea of an integrated camera. I own a digital camera, but rarely have it with me unless I'm planning to take pictures. However, my Clie is ALWAYS with me.
