Blackberry Phone?

[KelLuvsTink]

Does anyone know if the Blackberry Curve takes pictures that would be really nice and "Photo Album" worthy?

from the Cnet review

One-upping the BlackBerry Pearl, the Curve boasts a 2-megapixel camera (vs. 1.3 megapixels) with a 5x zoom and a built-in flash, but unfortunately, still no video-recording capabilities. You do get three picture sizes (1,600x1,200; 1,024x768; and 640x480) and three quality options (superfine, fine, and normal). You can also tweak the white balance and add color effects. That said, we were pretty disappointed by the quality of the pictures. Though the images had sharp definition, the colors were off and had a gray overtone.

In my experience, there are NO phones on the market that take decent pictures. They just can't squeeze a good sensor into that small a size.....yet. Better to stick w/ a small camera like one of the Canon or Casio's.

Here are some from DH's. I'd say it's best in optimal conditions, and no way I'd want one as my only camera. I did some editing on these, but after that they are better than I would have thought. You can't pixel peep, but they'd make decent small prints.
