Cameraphones to be 99% of all cellphones sold in South Korea next year

You gotta wonder what's holding the other one percent back (a strict workplace that bans cameras?), but cameraphones are expected to account for a full 99% of all cellphones sold in South Korea next year, which means it'll actually be difficult to buy a cellphone that's not also a cameraphone (only 40% of cellphones sold in the US next year are expected to have built-in digital cameras). To put this in perspective, only 8% of all handsets sold there in 2002 had built-in digital cameras. From nowhere to everywhere in just three years, not bad.
