The cameraphone wins again...

Just a short "follow-up" post:

A few weeks ago, I have written here about the rise of cameraphones and the inevitable fall of digital cameras. Well, in the last few weeks I have been to more than a few rock concerts (And I am going to another one tonight...), and as you can see in the picture, people are really embracing cameraphones and leaving their cameras at home.

Now I know that you could see a few people with cameraphones at rock concerts years ago (and even before that in operators/handsets vendors commercials...), but the difference is that now it is the masses using the technology, and not just a few early adopters. There were a lot of people using their phone to capture the moment and practically no cameras around.

So the next time you are at a rock concert or another event, make sure you are equipped with a good cameraphone and leave your digital camera at home...
