Thank you, I'll look into fCam.

Yes, you are right. There are so many amazing things about the N900 that it almost seems impossible to screw things up (unless you do it on purpose, like you say).

By the way (slightly off topic), I just did the experiment with the camera regarding IR light sources. Took an IR remote to a completely dark room, and the N900 camera clearly sees the IR light, whereas the naked eye sees nothing at all. I think that with a powerful enough IR light source we might have functional night vision with the N900.
