Correct, that's my opinion too. Industry is maturing. Today the volume drivers in the market are cellphone and webcam applications. And, winning in these markets is more about smart business (sales) tactics, less about technology.
Wrong. The industry is clearly in it's infancy. Pricing and adoption has hit a hiccup. China, India and other emerging markets have yet to be penetrated. Development is targeted to bringing the same qualities as P & S consumer cameras in a smaller form factor. Soon, very soon, there will be no need for low-end DSC's. Companies and developers are in quite modes right now developing as the new emphasis has shifted to process, new wafer level optic designs, processing and new optic dynamics. There is a heck of a lot of activity right now in this sector. It's just not in the public domain.
