    So, may be I have missed this, but does Nokia have a timeline when video-calling and MMS will be implemented via a software update? TBH, though these are not features I use occasionally, I feel 'uneasy' that they are not present (especially when a software update can fix them), and when the competitors all have them.

    The novelty of having this phone has now waned and I'm starting to carry around my old E71 again due to apps like Google Maps, Garmin Mobile XT, QuickOffice, HandySafe and a couple others :-(

    This quickly shows how this platform may not gain popularity sooner or later unless apps somehow show up in the OVI store. (Forget the hobbyist apps here in the extras repo, users like me & many others are willing to pay for apps if and when they are available)

    As from an official interview Nokia said that there will never be support for mms via the firmware updates. Video calling from skype and google is supported in the PR1.2

    MMS never (official), but they supported the development of fMMS, so it's implemented from a users perspective.

    Video calls they never commented upon, but I guess they'll not implement them, either.

    Seeing postings like http://techcraver.com/2010/05/25/sky...a-t-mobile-3g/ it should be possible now in PR1.2.

    Skype video chat over 3G internet connection is not the same thing as a standard 3G video call.

    legendracer,

    Skype video calls have always worked on the n900! Use the contacts app to initiate a skype video call

    I sometimes get that too. I blame the connection quality.
