Is Apples iPhone the New Polaroid

Is the iPhone the new Polaroid, well if Chase Jarvis's images created using the iPhone are to beleived then I reckon it could be.
A few months back I was all over Chase's blog and website, watching his videos and listening to his comments, and then Vincent Laforet started chatting about Canon's latest baby, and I kind of lost interest in Chase (sorry mate).
Chase was riding his own wave, he was helping people with his videos and thus people were talking about him and thus his name was everywhere, and everyone wanted a piece of Chase.... I got worn out after a month and decided to give it all a rest until the other day when for want of something better to do I typed in his address to see what he'd been up to, apart from the bio the whole web site seemed a bit (k)arma.
His images of Paris were like honey on a sore throat, especially the last one in the series, an image of some Autumn trees or at least trees with their Autumn regalia still on. Then I spied iPhone images, here we go I thought, but then WOW! This is my kind of thing, and if Chase is to beleived these images are straight out of the phone, and looking sweet.
So while Chase is still "all that" he has once again become a source of inspiration to me, so thanks Chase (not that you'll ever read this).
