Sorry, I shouldnt try to speed read and reply in a hurry.
I had a similar problem many moons (and a hell of a lot of beer) ago with a Holden I had with an auto trans. I knew it was time to top up the radiator when the engine started revving a bit harder to maintain road speed. Fill the radiator (which had a tiny leak) and everything was good for a few more weeks.

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/MITSUBISHI-EXPRESS-L300-88%2F1996-NEW-RADIATOR-AUTOMATIC_W0QQitemZ350308242425QQcmdZViewItemQQimsxZ20100123?IMSfp=TL100123237001r5185

The two brass fittings at the bottom of the radiator are where the trans cooling lines attach. These get plugged if you have a manual transmission. Between the two there will be a coil of tube to dissipate the heat into the coolant flowing throught the bottom tank.

Havent googled a camry.

Anywho my point was that yes a lack of coolant and dodgy thermostat could cause the symptoms described. Thats one theory. Also possible that the temperature sensor in the coolant wasnt completely immsersed causing the engine management system to make incorrect output decisions based on false readings.
