I can't seem to understand Nokia's thinking when I see applications that are advertised but not yet available for use,such as the page scanner.I was also disappointed to find the European model N900 only has 5 mgp camera vs the USA one as advertised as 10 mgp.

It's called Front View 900, and is available in the repository.

I was also disappointed to find the European model N900 only has 5 mgp camera vs the USA one as advertised as 10 mgp.

That would be untrue.

Classic example of arbitrary Nokia decision making. Couldn't just fallback to the no brainer of tagging with lat/lon if network isn't accessible, could you Nokia?
