C'mon, putting a camera sensor in a thin device such as an iPad or iPhone is a lot different than putting it into a camera. You run smack into the laws of physics.

Today's handhelds are thinner than most cameras, and can't spring for expensive lenses. As a result, you can only focus on a much smaller area in a handheld than you can in a camera. Trying to jam a lot more pixels in such a small area very quickly reaches a point where the image is degraded. 8MP may be the maximum pixel count we see in handhelds for a long time.
