I would never accept cameras if they were only one more app for the center screen, or if they were far below line-of-sight during normal driving (as in the center dash cluster). If cameras are to be deployed -- which I think is a wonderful idea -- we need to ensure that the practical and safety value is enhance, NOT diminished.
The folding mirror/camera deal where the camera operates when the mirror is folded in is genius. As for the camera displays, those should be near eye-level: dedicated displays just at the bottom of the windshield in front of the driver, or maybe at the lower-left and lower-right corners of the windshield, would be my preferred options. Looking down to check my side/rear views is a whole bunch of accidents waiting to happen... huge ergonomics fail.
