My guess is Nokia didn't thought things thru and washed their hands when people showed more interest in the N900 than they expected.

skype video call? How do you do it, please?

I've do google video call pc to N900, but it was always pc wich do the work.

I mean:

pc -> N900 => No problem.
N900 -> device => Unable to do it.

Thanks.

3G video calls is not supported by Nokia N900 HW or only in maemo software? Meego (and other systems) use ofono, which is open source. If N900 HW support 3G video calls, should be it supported by ofono?
