Why aren’t you built in: Turn my camera phone in to a webcam

I just found out about this application called: Mobiola Web Camera. Here is the product description:

Turn your Symbian smartphone into a high-quality web camera and throw out your bulky USB webcam. Very simple to install and configure, Mobiola Web Camera consists of two software components: (1) a client application that resides on the phone, and (2) a webcam PC driver compatible with any Windows application that can receive video feeds from a web camera including Skype, Yahoo, MSN, AOL IM, ICQ messangers, www.YouTube.com, www.MySpace.com and www.grouper.com. Carry your webcam with you wherever you go and connect it to your laptop at anytime.

This is just one of those things that makes so much sense. It is yet another feature that will encourage users to hook their phone up to their computer.

The only thing I worry about is how exactly would you mount your phone to sit properly? From the looks of it this only does video too. Shame because I’m almost positively sure that the microphones in mobile phones are better than anything that comes with our computers.
