Ah, hence the "upgrade" to an even MORE craptacular camera! Genius!!!

Like I said, a lower quality camera from a still image standpoint. It's not there for the purpose of still images. It's there for the purpose of video chat (said for the 3rd time). Considering the amount of compression necessary to send video at a serviceable frame-rate across the mobile internet, a high quality camera would be a waste of money. A simple cheap-o tiny camera can produce good-enough-video-quality, but it will not produce a particularly good still image.
