The N900 specs is shown to have 25fps at 848 × 480 which is about 1/4 more pixels (which is a lot -- for only a 5 frame loss). So I don't know if the camera is "locked" to a certain speed on the n900, but if it isn't is should easily be able to handle 320x240 @ well over 100fps...

In the video review it says 100 FPS: http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobiles/0,...92601-1,00.htm
Skip to 1 min 18 seconds.

100 FPS is very good for slow motion, watching things back in slow motion, such as playing a sport. This can really help your technique and improve your performance.

I play Badminton and i would find it very useful if somebody could record me at 100 FPS. I could then watch it back and see exactly how i moved my arm, and wrist all in slow motion.
