iPhone Camera not saving pictures

Everything looks like it's working, I aim at what I want, click the shutter button. It makes the clicking noise and acts like it's saving the image. But when you go to look at the image there is an empty box like there should be a picture, but nothing is in it. When syncing, iPhoto shows no photos on the iPhone.

I did a hard reset holding down both buttons until the Apple logo appears, no change in behavior. I did a restore in iTunes, no change in behavior.

Any other suggestions?

MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.5.2), 2ghz Intel Dual Core w/2GB RAM -8GB iPhone

Actually, after going to my local Apple store they swapped out my phone for a new one. As I mentioned in my original post, restoring did not work. I called Apple support who had me do a couple of restore variations to no avail. Even restoring and setting up the phone as a new one did not work. So, something hardware related was going on.{quote}

*NOTE: if your iphone becomes corrupted such that it is unable to save pics, in my experience, total software wipe ("restore") WILL solve the problem, but the problem will RETURN if you resync your most recent backup.* So basically you have to start all over.
