hi Juergen,
you are correct, and the Mitsubishi D251i is my recommendation
if you can't wait for a 504iS phone with camera. quite good
picture, many other features, and a back door to bypass DoCoMo
network - the memory stick.
other than a simple camera, mobile phones can also be used as
alarm clocks, that's one of the functions but does it have
anything to do with the carrier revenue we're discussing here?
cheers,
Ken

yeah, that's one of the typical (cultural?) misunderstandings.
Just because you can send a picture from a phone to email
addresses doesn't mean that users do this...sha-mail (or now
also i-shot etc) pretty much replaced the print club phenomena...
little pix gets collected and when you meet a friend you show
it to them. Stored on the handset which took the pic.
Emailing? That's optional.
