Full FeedThe one feature I am really going to miss that was left out of the 3G iPhone
The announcement of a 3G iPhone was expected at WWDC, yet the Internet still went crazy when Steve finally announced it for real. Coming in at half the price of the original iPhone with a few more outstanding features (GPS, 3G, etc), why wouldn’t anybody like it? However, one thing Apple left out that sort of disappoints me is the video camera. Not just one on the front that was rumored for video conferencing, but the original camera still doesn’t take video (unless Steve has a late “one more thing” coming). The lack of this feature not only keeps the Instinct’s argument valid, it totally leaves out the option for web conferencing and anything else that can be done with a video camera.
A video camera on the iPhone could be used in endless ways. Imagine taking a quick video and instantly uploading it to YouTube or Flickr Video. With its tight integration with iTunes, your video could easily be moved around your computer and be shown to all of your friends on a beautiful 3.5 inch screen. Although it may not be in the coming iPhone this July, I sure hope it’s on Apple’s checklist of things to add that Steve mentioned.

I’m not worried about missing video, but 2MP is crap, at least make it 3 or 4.
