One of the nice things about cell phones with cameras is that people don't know if you are taking a picture or checking your text messages. The draw back is that now you can't go in some places with them. For instance, I was at an opinion maker screening of "the Chorus" and was forced to leave my phone with the theater manager !!!!! It is a great film by the way.
The other drawback of camera phones, at least mine, is they aren't that good, yet...
I am dreading the day when they will not let you take them into store dressing rooms. I use them to take a picture of what I try on sometimes, then I can send it to a friend or my mom and get a second opinion. This is especially helpful if it is for a special occasion, I also snoop shop with it ;-)
