I am finally retiring my fist Gen N95, and hope that the N900 will be as good as the N95, especially video recording. No phone have until now been a worthy replacement for the ground breaking N95 "Do it All Phone" IMO.
Absolutely agree with all of that...and I'm in the same boat (except for the father-in-law part..I have to do the DVD stuff myself) by having a N95 that will soon be passing the torch to the N900 when it arrives.

Kozzi, you gave my Nikon loving mother a boner with those photos! LOL! She'd love a Nokia phone that'd accept her Nikkor and Hasselblad lenses.

Nilchak, Pixelpipe is new, but they're getting faster by the minute. I think its a server thing, not sure, but Pixelpipe will become a standard soon, mark my words. Free and agile is the way of progress.

And Flickr is fine, but Ovi will be alot more popular pretty soon. It doesn't require others to be your social buddies to share with it, either, so I don't get the friends on Flickr thing. You can share links to your data, and from the looks of things, Nokia is planning to buy a social network or build one of its own. (I hope its MySpace they want, tbh) Photo sharing will be big for Ovi as soon as Americans can get access to more Nokia devices, which is happening now. Look what the iPhone did for Flickr, and imagine what a US market full of Nokia cams will do for Ovi Share.

Yes, the N900 will take Nikkor and Hasselblad lenses. You only need a good set of rubber bands to secure the lenses properly.

While the N900's camera may have a proud heritage with other N-series devices, the N900 has to be the first cameraphone that can take a picture (or video) from the command line...

Flickr doesn't require anyone to be your friend to see your photos unless you specify that option for your photo(s)/video(s) (or specify that you only want friends and/or relatives to see the hi-res versions, or order prints, or whatever). Adding friends on Flickr is (usually) only meant to allow you to keep track of friends' (and others') media, not disallow others from seeing or linking to yours.

I love Flickr. My only complaint is that their free service only allows 200 photos on your photostream.

Does Ovi have a photostream feature like Flickr?

But a year of Pro service is only $25, Qole!

Honestly, I killed Flickr long ago. I'm not sure what the photostream is, but all content is freely shown on Ovi. It lacks the editing of Flickr, though, I'll admit.

I guess I don't like the social features of Flickr because I'm already doing the same thing with MySpace and Facebook, but I see the value in it for many. Maybe I'm more of a Nokia whore than I'd noticed, because it is simple in comparison to Flickr, but that's what I like about it. I let my other social sites do the friending.

If you already have an Nokia/Ovi account, you have a Share account already. Its integrated in the Nokia device, and easy to use.
