Why not? You've already got the processor, storage and screen, so a camera should be a no brainer. Since we're carrying this thing around, it should have a GPS (again, the processor, screen & storage are the big head start here).

Important: make sure that pictures taken with the camera get their EXIF metadata stamped with the GPS data!! This opens a whole world of geophotomapping that is about to break hugely into the mainstream.

I tend to be wary of jack-of-all trades devices, which as the old saying goes, don't seem to do anything very well. I'd rather the Neuros III was a great mp3 player than a poor camera.

I'm talking about the 442, which is already a multi-function device. In this case, it's important to be the jack of *all* trades. Not the jack of a few trades. The great thing about Neuros' open approach is that while it may start out mediocre in some aspects, over time it could be great at everything. The requirement, however, is that the right base hardware is included from the start.
