If they really wanted to cater to the business crowd, they'd get rid of the stinking camera. My phone options right now are between crap and more crap, because you can't get a decent phone sans camera...

do you really work someplace so strict as to completely ban camera phones?

[iamdigitalman @ Sep 18th 2007 1:00PM]

Actually yes, there are government facilities that don't allow their employees to carry or own camera phones. Even some corporations don't, to protect their internal secrets (upcoming products, sensitive data, personal information, etc.

I just carry a nokia 1100 when i'm on the job. It works

they made one model that had both options. one with camera and one without(price difference was next to nothing, the camera doesn't really cost that much).
they made e61/e62 that had no camera. biggest complaint with e61? no camera.
guess what e61i has? a camera.

the places that don't allow cameras are really, really rare. yet, always, when somebody offers a business phone somebody complains that it has a camera... places with so tight security might not allow you to take usb memsticks back and forth either and these phones double as those as well.
