Why doesn't the iPod have a camera?
Practically every other Apple product has a built-in webcam. The iPod can already display photos. Apparantly the iPhone will have a camera. So why isn't there an iPod with a camera yet?
Edit: I'll be the first to say I always though cell phones having cameras didn't make much (if any) sense. However that said, the iPod having a camera doesn't make any less sense. It would give the photo-viewing capability a bit of a boost in usefulness.

errr, that also shows notes, plays simple games, and plays movies..
ah, never mind.
I think we'll see the iPod evolve a bit in 2007, perhaps become a phone/ichat client....nobody knows but Ive and co.
All in one devices are not the way to go. As soon as you want to improve one part of your multifunction device (say better resolution for the camera or large memory capacity) you have to bin the whole thing.
I prefer to have the best of breed in each device, then I can upgrade then as required.

Maybe that's the rationale behind cameras in phones.

The rational for cameras in phones is for mobile carriers to find more ways to milk money out of their customers.

I'd have to agree. Photos taken on the phone cameras are pretty much worthless.
