Before changing to N900, I used HTC Tytn II. When I travelled and sightseeing with my wife, we enjoyed using the front camera of my HTC to take pictures of ourselves. Of course, the quality of these pictures would not be good for printouts. For us, we only watched pictures from our phones or on computer and the quality of these pictures are reasonable. The biggest advantage of using the secondary (front) camera for self-picturing is, we don't have to border someone to shoot for us.

After purchasing N900, I found there is although a front camera but there is no application to use it. There is an app. called Mirror but it works as its name, just like a mirror but without capturing function and the quality of image is very poor.

I hope someone can work out an application to utilize the front camera of N900 and to provide low noise images.
