But I thought the new version of fring was suppose to support the front cam. But I think that was for other nokia phones not sure if they will do the samething for the n900.

I would love to use the front cam for IM with skype or gtalk. Now that would be great.

the video is not too bad but the voice is choppy as hell, best bet would be to use a voice+data call for decent voice.
i used it once and havent used it since

I'm not sure what the front camera would actually see while I type IMs... a nice shot straight up my nose?

video call again like the mms, old stuff that costs money.. better to be implemented over ip.. so we can chat/see our friends family around the world for gratis. but ok we should have the facility to do both

I have been surprised to find out that N900 doesn't give user a option to make 3G phone Call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Man , even my previous N95 can do this easily..................
this is not acceptable!!!!!!!!!
so disppointed again.

You should have searched before posting... plenty of people and posts about this already.
And if you purchased the N900 thinking it would already do video calls, you were either misinformed or you hadn't researched enough.
If it makes you feel better, it's one of the main reasons I'm holding off on my N900 purchase - the other two reasons are because it supports a different network and ultimately I don't have any money yet for one - is because of the lack of usage of the forward facing camera.
Who knows... perhaps Fring and/or Skype will give you that ability shortly... if not, RTComm. All are being updated invariably in the future.
