Point and Shoot a Dying Breed?

Yahoo Finance ran an article the other day about how some people are turning more and more to their camera phone for picture taking. They opine that this will bring about the death of the point and shoot camera. I realize I'm a purist, but still you cannot get the same quality of image from the crappy lens of a phone compared to what you achieve with the lens of a stand alone camera, be it a point and shoot or an SLR. Yes, camera phones are convenient, people have them on their person at all times, so they can grab a quick photo when the opportunity arises and post it on Facebook or elsewhere on the internet. But if you are interested in quality images and actually printing photographs, a dedicated camera is still the best way to go.
