Hey,
i just wanted to know if there is any way to use the built-in cam of my phone for use with my computer. I mean, if i can capture films or photos with my mobile or use it for video-chat.

I got a W810i and a Mac (OS X - Tiger)

thanks and best wishes

You can definitely capture videos on your phone then transfer them to the Mac and play them back in QuickTime.

You can also take pictures on the phone and transfer them to the Mac.

You can transfer videos and photos either by Bluetooth or using the supplied USb cable.

If you plug your phone in via USB you can use iPhoto to import photos like you would any other digital camera.

You can't, however, use your phone as a webcam.
