Nokia's Lifeblog

I'm really thinking these guys at Nokia get it. Their move into the digital photography space has not gotten much attention but the are doing some very interesting things. Chrisitan Lindholm who is leading this LifeBlogging effort was one of the key people behind Nokia's NaviKey interface (Check out his book on Mobile Usability). They currently have among the best camera phones (may not be the most mega pixels but it takes good pictures) and I keep on thinking about two things: the first is a real camera with wireless (cell and wifi) built in and the second is a more special purpose camera for surveillance/security/monitoring that can hop on the cell network and start transmitting (I could use one of these tomorrow for my vacation home). Nokia has many of the core building blocks to make this happen.
