There may be many good reasons to own an iPhone from Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL). Although I still haven't gotten my hands on one, I have been able to get a good look at some of what the device can do. Perhaps these aren't the ten best reasons, but they are ten good ones.
To the best of my knowledge, all of the photo gallery images that I'm providing here for you have been sent using the iPhone. Though I'm impressed, I did notice that the iPhone image quality declines slightly as light levels decrease, but it still does remarkably well for a phone. Yes folks, the attached gallery pictures were sent by mobile phones.
The gallery images are all at original resolutions and are all unretouched. If it is true that we can now take digital images of this quality and instantly download them to our favorite picture manager as well as e-mail them to anywhere in the world that we choose, it is my opinion that the makers of memory cards for digital cameras had better be working on some new product ideas, because I'm guessing that image data storage has just taken a turn for the best.
Please do enjoy the gallery.

Actually, if the pictures were e-mailed from an iPhone, they're not even at their full resolution. The only way to get a full resolution photo off of the iPHone at this time is to sync it with iPhoto or some other picture management software.

The iPhone is a piece os crap. It is overpriced, requires a 2-year contract, and doesn't have a FRICKIN' removable battery. Great for Apple, because when your lithium ion battery wears out you have to pony up the cash and bend over for a new battery. Oh, wait, you want to lease a phone from them while they're repairing it? You'll have to pony up even more cash. I'm waiting for the Meizu minione. Removable battery, unlocked, and it's supposed to be approximately $450. Did I mention that it's 16GB?

Why would memory manufacturers be worried? To store the photos you take on your phone still requires storage, which is basically going to be either built in (ala iPhone) or on a seperate card (eg mini-SD, which is what a lot of other camera phones take).
So with better resolution from camera phones (and therefore increased photo size) the need for memory cards INCREASES.
