Huh. I guess you haven't bothered to use anything else, then. Seriously. It's GREAT that the N900 got fcam, but it's hardly "the first!" at anything except finally having open-source drivers for the N900... certainly not the first good camera app on a cell phone, certainly not the first to do anything other camera apps can do (and often do more and better) elsewhere.. it's just a good start. "It was the N900 that got it first" is a silly, boggling statement. It SHOULD be said, 'At least the N900 FINALLY got some potential opened up.'

What they did was ENABLE. They didn't pioneer anything with this app yet.
