That is about what I expected. I thought the droid would be slightly smaller, but neither is anything that I would leave my camera behind for and use the camera phone in its place. It may have some uses, but it also might be like the project I gave myself some time ago. I did a project that made me use only consumer grade film and equipment to see what I could come up with. Interesting homework, but did nothing with it.

My iPhone 4 produced a jpeg image of a typical garden scene of around 2 MB size, giving me, in Photoshop Elements an 8.64 x 6.453 inches image at 300 pixels/inch - or 2592 x 1936 pixels. I expect the iPhone 4S to be better than this. My first digital camera from Panasonic produced tiny 640 x 480 pixels images !
