Well, I have a Motorola V600 that has three different resolutions that are
selectable via on-screen menu: 640x480, 320,240 and 160x120. Not only
that, I can select either 1x, 2x or 4x zoom modes. I am amazed at the video
quality. My only complaint is the leather case will get in the way, so I
have to remove the half that covers the flip part of the phone which is
where the camera is. Oh, well, we can't have everything. I let you all know
more when I upload a photo to my computer. Stay tuned.

I don't know whether this is a good forum to ask this
question or not, but here goes.
We've all been watching cameras move into cellphones, while
cellphones simultaneously get smaller. These cameras are
physically very small, with tiny lenses & tiny sensors.
How good can such a small camera be? Is the size of a
video camera constrained by physics to be some minimal
size, or could a broadcast-quality video camera (e.g., HD)
someday be embedded into a cellphone?
