There was a time when I was a skeptic about the idea of marrying a phone and a camera, or a phone and a music player.  In fact, I had heated discussions during the late 90’s with colleagues at Microsoft where I argued that a single function device was the better choice.

But then there are days like today where I am glad I lost the argument.

Sitting at the parking lot of the Giant Tiger store in Manotick, waiting for the scouts to drop off my son Peter after a four day canoe trip, I snapped these photos using my BlackBerry Curve at the tail end of a late day downpour.
