Ever tried to watch a webcam on your T610? Well i did it...First of all to see how it looks like go to the following address with your T610 browser:
http://users.onvol.net/114398/wc.htm
The picture refreshes automatically every 10 seconds. So...if you are interested how to do it just go to that address with your PC browser, right click on the page and "view source". What that html code does is, it displays a picture called "cap.jpg" and instructs the browser to reload it. The picture it self is pushed there by an Webcam software (in my case " ActiveWebCam"). Please note that the page refreshes properly only with the T610 browser (Internet Explorer pools the picture from the cache so you only see the same picture). If you are going to setup such webcam remember to resize the picture to 128/96 pixels otherwise T610 won't always show it (memory....) So you can watch what's up at home on your mobile.

Yeah, it shows "Friends" (instead of a static picture)

I use conquercam software with my pc webcam,then on my web/wap site i have set up a page where i can view the cam from my t610,it also refreshes every 30 seconds but you have to leave your pc on for it to work.
The thread i posted earlier has a kind of tutorial on there on how to set it up but you will probly need ftp access and a bit of web space for it to work,as i already have a site up and running it was just a matter of setting up the page itself.
Tagtag is probly not ideal for this (if anyone was thinking this) as you need to use html coding for the refresh.
If nobody wants it.. put it on eBay.

Sweet tip, thanks for this man!

I've always wondered if you could use the T610 as a webcam.

you don't use the t610 as a webcam, you use the t610 to view the webcam.

To view the cam on your phone you need to set up a site as mentioned, (read the thread boyi posted), then type the site address into your phones browser. This will then show you the webcam picture.

Lots of hosts offer FTP access, however not many free hosts do. Me and Boyi both use 250free.com but you need to be a platinum member to get ftp access.

Make sure that conquercam isnt saving the jpg as a progressive file. Boyi had that problem, which we discovered in the thread he posted

Mobiles dont like progressive files!
