Pantech's two megapixel Dica PG-8000 due out soon
We first spotted this one back in May, but Pantech says that their new
PG-8000 two megapixel cameraphone should be out sometime next month. Yeah, it can do a few other things besides take pictures (like play MP3, AAC, AAC+ audio files), but there's really no mistaking this one for what it really is: a two megapixel camera that also happens to make phone calls (you can probably figure out what "Dica" stands for). Two megapixels probably aren't enough to satisfy anyone who is serious about using their phone as their primary digital camera (which is the only reason you'd by something like this that's more camera than phone), but sooner or later they'll squeeze a decent four or five megapixel sensor in there and make a handful of hardcore enthusiasts very happy. Oh, and for the record this is a GSM
phone with a 2-inch, 320 x 240 pixel LCD screen, Bluetooth, and an integrated FM tuner.
