It looks like someone was listening when I was commenting on the fact that we've been stuck with 0.3 megapixel digital cameras for too long. 1.3 megapixels? I'm all over it - if the image quality is decent that is. Quick, someone buy one and let me know. ;-)
"The Pretec CompactCamera(TM) is a full-featured digital camera card that can be used on any Pocket PC or Pocket PC 2002 PDA with a CompactFlash Type I interface slot. The CompactCamera(TM) is capable of taking photos up to 1.3 Megapixel resolution and is capable of 2X digital zoom. Several image quality settings allow you to adjust the JPEG compression level to get the perfect balance between the file size of the image file and its quality. The 180-degree swivel head design allow you to view yourself, an automatically adjusted upright view of the scene you are facing if you rotate the head all the way in the opposite direction, or all angles in between. Organize your photos and video clips into colorful albums, even add text and audio annotations for your favorite files."
