kdrozd: lol now people will start asking why they can't get the update after the steps you mentioned...
I think you replaced one evil with another...!
I've added this:
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't play with it unless you really know what you are doing, instead of posting complaints.

Yes you are right. However since fring, a third party skype solution, is currently offering Skype Video Calls for all Symbian devices I see no reason why this option cannot come to the N900 plus in the N900 Skype is directly involved with the development.
I am not sure if fring is using the H264 or other protocol but they did manage to do it.
It woud be nice ot have video calling from Skype but the question is whether they consider it a profitable investment of time to do this. I believe that it is a closed source module so Skype themselves would need to sort this one.

Ok, I've try with GTalk on PR1.2 SDK with my real gmail/gtalk account and contacts, I don't see "video call" button on any of my gtalk contacts or conversation window.
I don't know if the web page to N900 works though. The tests I have done use an N8x0 to the N900 or two N900's. The video stream for GTalk on the N900 I believe requires H264 encoding. I seem to recollect someone saying they had done this with Asterisk for the PC and an N900 or N8x0 though.

No mms
The phone "app" is not as customisable as symbian
Even though the n900 has many more features when compared to others we still are missing some basic functionality.
I agree, as do most that these are desrable features but not for discussion in a thread about PR 1.2 - new thread please!!

thats one fix that is needed yes.
But if i have to say what is the most lacking software piece on the N900 it is modest.
Yes i find it if more horrible then Ovi Maps.
IMAP support is really bad. No imap-idle (which is for a always on-line mobile device a must ), no sent folder support, it downloads way to much for example i tried it when i was in another country, the kilobytes where flying over the wire for almost nothing new..
Also UI wise i can go on and on... Its just one of the weaker parts of the N900..

You know, Fargus, I've said this so many times everytime someone said that the N900 is Nokia's flagship "phone", but I seriously got tired of repeating myself over and over again, I actually was thinking of creating a new thread saying that the N900 is NOT Nokia's flagship "phone"... but, then it will probably grow into a really nasty and flaming thread after that, so now I just keep it to myself and move on..

Also can you please try the same thing for Skype?
