Just realized the camera has a cover. So maybe the best solution is: if the camera cover is closed - the camera button is push-to-talk.

And it would be fun to do this app - I don't see why it shouldn't be possible :-)

I have just submitted the above idea "push-to-talk using camera button" to the PUSH N900 program. I should give proper credit to Baylink (subscriber #755) for sharing her/his idea with us on LWN. If "my" application gets selected I hope you'll forgive me for "stealing" the idea. Well, we might work together on this?

Looking forward to the N900 hitting the shelves - I want one.

We will see, won't we. :-)

For my target audience, the hardware's not really ruggedized enough anyway. And, being a happy n800 owner, I think they stole too much from the 810, and not enough from the 8100.

Thanks for putting it in, though; let me know what happens.

Have I really been around here that long? :-)
