I haven't tried it yet, but considering I have a BUNCH of old crap to get rid of, I'll try it and let you know, if you're genuinely interested to know. I can't imagine it would be impossible or even hard to do. I imagine I'd just snap the pictures first, then go to the eBay website and just upload them as usual. I'll let you know and post the auction here. HEY! Win-win.

I love open source but I also like functioning hardware and workable OS and the N900 isn't. Nothing I want in work can be done on the N900 that can't be done better on other phones and so I am now back to my tytn2 which is 2 years old and runs cruddy winmo6.
Well, now that you're mentioning a firm... any BUSINESS would NEVER want to use an N900 as their phone. RIGHT away, the problem is that there is no IMMEDIATE support or replacement policy. You can't wait a month or more to ship this device all over the Earth just to get a small (maybe not even critical) part replaced. You can't depend on Nokia as a vendor of a device your business depends on. This would be an immediate deal-killer in any business relationship with a device manufacturer, as far as I'm concerned, and a big reason why I cannot recommend it to the associated, friends and family that I talk to either.
