Hello !

All my friends are using MSN or Skype as primary IM. No problem for chat with them using the n810.

The camera is, for me, totally useless because I don't want to explain to my friends how to install a sip client, create a new account, etc just for chatting with me !

I just wanna know how do you use your camera.

That's a good point, apart from taking pictures of myself I'm a little confused as to the point of the 'Camera'. Mine seems to have a rather bright, orange display! the 'settings' feature is pretty good when I click on it it says "Camera" Doh!

You could install the 'camera' package and then use it like a ....camera.

Doesn't the AMSN client support webcam on the N8x0?

It's too bad Nokia didn't decide to make some extra money by providing a way to substitute a decent camera for the one they ship, at a premium price, of course.

You can use it with Gizmo currently for tablet-to-tablet or tablet-to-pc video calling. It will also work with Gtalk for tablet-to-tablet video calling, and as soon as Skype updates their software, should work with Skype for video calling, as well.

The camera is the most useless POS I've seen.
Poor color balance.
Low resolution.
Fixed to your left side.
Makes the GPS look good.
I'd rather have had the FM radio.
