The "Taken by iPhone" Photo Frenzy
We may be about a month away from the release date of the eagerly anticipated iPhone, but that's not stopping enthusiasts (aka lunatics with too much time on their hands) from trying to track down photos that may or may have been taken by the iPhone's 2.0 megapixel camera. First we have the post from Mobile Guerrilla, where the author mentions the Flickr page where the photos first appeared and copies in the EXIF data taken from the photos that identify them as having been taken by the iPhone. Then we have the AppleiPhoneReview, which uses a complex involvement the location of a butcher shop and the presence of a well-known food blogger as supplemental proof that the iPhone really did take these two photos.
Hold on a sec, guys. Even if these photos are real (and I'm willing to bet anyone can hack EXIF data if they know what they're doing), who cares? The one taken outside looks good, the one taken inside does not, because it's a two megapixel camera. A two megapixel camera will not take earth-shatteringly awesome pictures all the time, even if made by Apple and blessed by the hand of Steve Jobs himself.

Outside photo is good enough for me.I think it’s even better the nokia’s 2mpx camera, for example in E65.

Turning your cell phone into an entertainment machine just got easier. If Justin Timberlake can claim that he’s brought sexy back, then he’d be speechless at the advent of Sex on Cell TV. Bringing new meaning to the words “textual intercourse”; internet’s sexiest nudes are at your fingertips. Choose from a wide variety of preferences, even including gay and lesbian. High quality mobile movies are discretely sent to your cell or another device capable of video streaming upon your request. All I did was to point your mobile to http://sexoncell.com for adults only mobile fun.
