Missing the point: Samsung DMB cameras

by Jayvee on November 21st, 2005

I love Samsung. They make great phones. They also make fairly okay point and shoot cameras, but nothing compared to what Olympus and Sony have to offer.

So while I was browsing this entry in Engadget, I couldn’t help but put an imaginary letter “u” somewhere between the word “DMB.” It gets even DMB-ER when you read this:

“Our DMB cameras will compete against phones as we will arm them with a screen as large as 3 inches diagonally, much larger than today’s DMB phones at about 2.2 inches.”

Not sure if I’ve been away from the Internet for too long (one day). But the last time I bought a phone, I remember wanting it to make great phone calls. Last I bought a camera, I wanted it to take good pictures.

The Angel in me: Wow! Convergence technology is truly the way to go. It seems that the market is changing once more, where the demand for a gadget that can do video and audio on the side is truly feasible.

The Devil in me: Wow! Convergence technology is truly the way to go. It seems that the market is being flooded with gadgets that can do things which other devices can do better. Don’t we hate these jack of all trades devices. Consumers want a device that can do just one thing really well.

There’s only one convergence device that stores pictures, plays movies, and surfs the web while you’re at it. Some even take photos. It’s called the notebook computer.
