Confirmed

No need to install skype unless you need it.

using SIP account to a linphone install on another network.

I observed the same thing happen.

My guess is this would work for other apps that use the front camera as well,
but there are probably differences from app to app.

Mini 'How To':

Code:

Install on some networked pc the application LinPhone 

Set up your n900 on the same network 
(if possible, not necessary if you have a local sip server like I 
have)

Call your n900 (sip:yourhandle@your.net.work) and initiate a video session.

Hang up (and reboot ? - maybe, - i forget :confused:)

Voila - better mirror (useless app anyway) if that's what you want
(I only noticed because I never actually use mirror,
 but accidentally started it a day or so ago and I was amazed
 at the difference )

Thanks go to tusharmax for the heads up on this tidbit.
