Kikos, wow thats amazing. which remind me about one thing. you mentioned this but i would like to clarify.
If i am on WiFi/3G can i use my phone to webcam/talk to someone OVER THE INTERNET without having to call any local number? just use wifi/3g?
Does webcam work this way? like can i webcam using SKYPE with someone that is sitting at home on their computer?
Lastly, what OS does renoir use so that i can research about that? |

There are some apps that run on phone and use phone cam as a webcam, but that's not skype. They are using own protocol and the other end of your connection should use the same app.
Not really interesting, or is it?

C902 video quality better than N82?? LMFAO!  what a joke!! The poor c902 is NOT even capable of displaying VGA @ 30FPS vids recorder by a N82, the little c902s hardware is TOOOO weak, just go to M-R, GSMArena or SMape and look at the video samples taken by N82 there, nobody needs to post anything here because its a FACT that N82 does vid rec better than c902.

and like i said before, this video on GSM arena is recorded with a early BETA (CA) firmware, so come on, even you guys cant be so naive 
edit. Renoir use their own OS i think.(flash UI)...am i right ??

 i was certain i wanted the renoir until the mention of VOIP online calls..
(i.e. FRINGS)
since RENOIR supports only j2me applications (am i right?) then there will never be a program for this.. right? |

is there no touch phone like the LG renoir , with the same features, but a symbian OS ? 
What about N82 vs Samsung innov8? who wins there? both have wifi, gps, good camera, good video, symbian os!
OH: what about the GPS on the Renoir? how is the application???

Touch phones with Symbian OS? Well...only the 5800 comes to mind, if you're talking about newer phones. Idou isn't released yet and we still don't know how good (or bad) it is. I think you should also consider the Arena or the Viewty Smart, both from LG. If you are more of a slider person then INNOV8. Mind you, none of these have a xenon flash unless you don't think you really need it. |

If your thinking of the C902 I wouldn't bother and just buy the Nokia N82, like i said XENON flash, common sense should tell you THAT'S what you want if your serious about your mobile being your only camera.
Here's a video that a mobile phone review guy made just to prove the point of the difference Xenon flash makes, the flash part is about a third of the way in:

He mentions a Samsung phone and the 6220c Nokia so you could add them to your list too?

apolloar, from my research:
Not only does the N82 have have Xenon, it also has better vidoe recording capabilities.
As for the Viewty, it does not have GPS, and a GPS is a MUST for me in chosing my phone!
will look at the 5800 later cheers guys! |

to be really honest i think a Renoir would fit you best. i reckon you want to use Internet a lot because of your wlan thoughts (so go for a Renoir then)
(think gps/wlan "fits" best with a really big screen....
Cybershot is mainly a Camera cellphone.
edit...or do what i does (when i use my Car)...
(works great).. it find connection faster then my friends C905)
(the only drawback is that is not integrate.....he he)

Yes that's right about the N82, I'm no Nokia fan but I do know they are better at video, I also can't believe nokia haven't put a Xenon in the N97?
I have an even smaller GPS on my keyring works blindingly fast too! |

star, if you're thinking about touchscreen phones
Nokia 5800 offers almost the same app varyity as n82, it only has worse camera for fotos, though videos are good.
There are SE g series - touch screen symbian phones, with low video quality i guess. These are not s60, but are UIQ, it's dead already, and UIQ has less apps than s60. |

G900 is a perfect example of a powerful smartphone inside behaving like a normal phone. though its UI platform ceased to exist after SF is announced, it's the best SE Symbian smartphone you can get from now, just the slow interface and average photo and video quality are your main issues.
for your list, i'll definitely recommend an N82 (BLACK)
