I often wonder why this isn't as common for all phones since this is not the only phone to have a front facing camer... with the N8x0's cameras why isnt this something that already just works

its because the front camera was/is being used for internet video calls, not 3g ones. I really hope they get it to work soon as in some situations a video call could save A LOT of time.

I expect the actual 3G video calling would be low on the agenda as it isn't a well used feature of 3G networks, much to the annoyance of the network operators.

Would love to see the N8X0 get its due as well as the N900.
