There is an app called Camera. Look for it in Application Manager.

"Internet call" comes pre-installed and uses the built-in camera.

None of my contacts us Gizmo, despite my attempts.

Skype doesn't use it (shameful). RTComm doesn't use it for MSN, AIM, or Yahoo. Fring doesn't use it either. And using the camera pointing towards me instead of other things makes my use of it very low with the Camera app.

Highly under-utilized. And Skype has not upgraded since 2007.

I installed Videocamera Version 0.5.2 which records video with sound and is also a "still" camera. This application also allows you to email your video or picture to one of your contacts.
