Taking a page from how they made the iPod/iPhone...
- It would be ultra thin, with an amazingly glossy finger-print-collector shell
- Called the iCam
- Non-replaceable battery & built-in 16GB memory, no memory card slot
- It would only cost $600 at launch (which would drop to $400 2 months later, "isn't that fantastic?")
- Photos are locked in, you can only, "easily" get them out with iPhoto sync
- iPhoto would be available on Windows; iPhoto on the Mac would start blocking importing in photos from other cameras
- Natually, installing iPhoto on your Windows machine would also install Quicktime, iTunes, Safari and Apple software update
- It would only have a power button and a shutter button; double click to record videos, triple click to view photos... it's just that easy (maybe add on a touch screen)
- It would come with a lens that produce photos in your choice of mosaic art or Mr. Blurry cam; you would need to buy an overpriced, "designed for iCam" add-on lens to get usable pictures
- The 1st generation product would have no flash, with Steve Jobs claiming that people don't need flash (actually, that's coming in the 2nd generation)
- Again, zoom would not be added until the 3rd iteration
- AppleCare would cost $120
- It would be the #1 selling camera in the USA as long as there is an Apple logo on there
- Oh, and it would come with Apple logo stickers, free in the box
