That's not really the way it works.. Cameron can go to the Queen and request he form a Government on the basis he has by far the mosts seats and that request would not be refused.
The problem we have is that the Tories and Lib Dems are dilly dallying on what sort of deal they do...lets get it into reality Brown can do nothing but sit there and it's unfair in all this "fair" political system to blame Brown.
Even if Brown did resign whoever took over his post as leader of Labour would be made Prime Minister because the Tories and the Lib Dems are still the opposition until they ask the Queen permission to form a Government.
