Now, will the people running the telcos realize that those XDA’s come built with a camera, yet they keep wanting to sell camera less phones.

Reports are that Cingular asked the manufacturer to not include the camera so they can sell in to the enterprise and government market.

Well, for those of us who are not corporate types, we want to carry less weight and have more features.
