Hi! Anyone tried, and managed to get video call working between the N900 and other Nokia device (Symbian ^3)?

I'm trying to connect my N900 with a C6-01, but could only get voice call and IM. Sadly, the video call could not work. The C6-01 has a front camera for 3G video call. Any ideas?

Hey Joseph, I might be wrong but I thought Symbian phones could only receive voice calls and IM chats.. No option for video calls..or did they just implemented it?

From the C6-01 specs:
Second camera (VGA) for video calls

@BluesLee: Are you sure this is working? I installed skype 2.2 on my laptop yesterday and tried to do a videocall between it and my N900, but it didn't work. Or did you have to modify your N900s config before it worked? With the stock settings it doesn't seem to work right.

I believe you need the beta.

Yeah I know, but 2.2 is the Beta (2.2.0.25 to be correct, thats the version I have installed), as there is no Final 2.2 out yet. I also have all the features mentioned in the changelog, so I'm pretty sure it's the right version. But sadly still no Videocalls between N900 and the linux client (at least for me).

It did work for me, between Nokia N900 PR1.3 and Skype 2.2.0.25 running on Ubuntu 10.04. It took several attempts, but I did get bidirectional video.
