Due to the big success of camera phones a new industry was born: Mobile Imaging. Where innovations and new features play an important role in the digital imaging industry, the innovations in the mobile imaging industry are increasing with a much larger factor compared to other imaging industries. The mobile imaging industry is growing every year and is exploring a variety of opportunities to get access to content and share them among their clients. The days that a mobile phone was only used for communication in terms of speaking are already over for some years now. Today's mobile phone is able to capture still images, video clips, voice memo, plays audio like MP3 or video, and is even able to act like a portable television. The mobile phone plays an important part of today's modern life; the Photokina 2006 does not differ from that.
