Communicator Features: Nokia 9210 Digital Camera

Nokia announced some time ago that the 9210 would have a digital camera bundled with it. This will be compatiable with the device either via transferring pictures via infrared or the MMC card. The pictures can then be viewed and perhaps modified by the Imaging application. The camera has the following features:

EYEQ IR DIGITAL Features

  • Compatible with the Nokia 9210 Communicator
  • VGA (640 X 480 Pixels)
  • IrDA (Infrared) Port Connectivity to the PC or the Nokia 9210 Communicator
  • Windows� 98 and 2000 Compatible
  • Up to 12 Image Storage
  • Additional Storage with (Optional) MMC Cards
  • Built in Flash, Auto Exposure, Auto White Balance
  • Long Lasting Battery Life: 200 + Images
  • Ultra Compact, 1"/2.73cm Thick and Less Than 4oz./113.4g.

Personal Notes / Opinion:

It is not known whether the camera will be bundled with every device, I think that this is unlikely, the first devices will be, but as time goes by and prices are reduced the camera may be removed from the package. It is likely it will later become available as an optional extra.

It should be kept in mind that the camera was designed to be specifically used with the 9210 and is thereofre in competition with devices such as the PalmPix and Visor Eye Module.

For me it adds an extra wow factor to the 9210 package, and I for hope that if I ever get ones of these machines the camera is included. It should be noted it is not a great camera (VGA resolution only) though and might be best viewed as something for taking quick low quality snaps.
