there is no app integrated, but you can download 'Mirror' from the extras repositories. that .app uses the front cam, though its very bad image quality

It currently has no solid function as of yet except being used in the "Mirror" application I think.

Main problem with it right now is some artifacting forming a band (vertical?) on part of the screen and unless you're in a brightly lit area- (Though I have heard this will be fixed in a firmware update.) the quality suffers immensely anyways. Perhaps in the future someone will include a Skype port that allows you to use it for videochat or something similar, but for now it doesn't do all that much yet.

Mirror app - as stated before - so one use - hehe

I'm sure that people will start adding it's ability to future apps, as also mentioned before, amsn etc, when they make it into extras

There could be a firmware update from nokia to fix issues too - will hope!
Would be nice to get some good use out of something i've paid for
