military bases, government offices, credit card call centers and many other call centers. a lot of places. also many professionals such as real estate, insurance, contractors don't want a camera because their clients tend to not like them having a camera phone with them for certain business dealings.

Over 50% off my customers are military that can not have a camera phone at work. So the solution that we have for them may work for you. Many of them want a nice multi function phone such a yourself. So what they do is get a non-camera phone such as the LG4650 or similar. The also have a BT, V-cast, camera phone that they use when they are not at work. They simply use call forwarding when they are at work to forward the calls from the camera phone to the non-camera phone. It only costs $10 more a month.
The cell phone makers are not going to spend the time to put BT in a non-camera phone. It is not worth it for them. And you won't find a Treo 650 without a camera new in a retail store. You would have to but it on E-Bay.

That solution would cost 2x the minutes for any forwarded call.

No it wouldn't. It would be an "IN" call so it would only use the minutes of the forwarded phone.
