I predict a megapixel backlash on the consumer side pretty soon. Currently the marketing spiel is "more megapixels = better", but I think once consumers see how much actual physical filespace the picture takes up, how email/upload unfriendly it is, and the fact that the friend with half as many megapixels has pictures that look just as good, they'll start settling for what's practical.
