Agreed! The first thing I thought when I saw that phone is, "that's EXACTLY the phone I need!"

I work in a secure facility, where cameras are not allowed. Do you know how hard it is to find a phone w/o a camera in it these days? It's actually a PITA! And that's just silly... :)

I know some folks working in secure facilities who actually drill out the camera lens with a drill press and fill the hole with a drying cement. It's effective, if a bit... draconian.

Though I heard a month or two ago that the regulations for some secure sites have been changed to allow cameras on phones. Several people I know who have not gotten cells are now looking at getting them because they can keep them when at a secure site.

This is all experience with military contractors in St. Louis, so your mileage may vary.
