"In conjunction with its presence at the Photo Marketing Association Show, Samsung today announced that it will bring cameraphones with resolutions of 3.5 and 5 Megapixels to the U.S. market in 2005. Likely, the company will adapt two existing CDMA models for the Korean market, the SCH-S230 and SCH-S250, for a U.S. release later this year."

You have to give some credit to Samsung. They are actively pushing the camera phone barrier. With any luck, these two phones might take a nice enough picture that I would actually consider printing it! Wink The phones will also feature 0.001 second shutter lag, TV output and Text-To-Speech recognition.

I guess that's kinda cool for those moments when you don't have a camera with you... However, I would not pay any premium for this phone whatsoever... You can get a great 3.2MP camera from Canon for $125.

I'd love if my future PocketPC came with a built-in camera with this kind of resolution.
