From the Mobile-review review:
The absence of the second camera for vide calls is explained with two reasons. First, there are not so many 3G phones now and a camera even increases their price. Second, those who really want to use the possibility make most of the calls from their offices or homes and that's why a special accessory (a camera with a holder) was represented. The absence of the second camera may not be considered a disadvantage, that is a niche function for the moment.
I'm sorry, but doesn't this defeat the whole purpouse of a 3G phone?
Not only that but "that is a niche function for the moment." means to me that you'll need to buy yourself a new 3G phone when 3G takes off!
No, sorry Nokia, the lack of that camera is reason enough for me to stay clear of the 6630. I can't see why who ever I'm talking to could have any interest in seing what the wall next to me looks like.

I don't have one yet (I've decided to get the mighty Nokia 7710 just after christmas), but I played with one for a few minutes at my local Nokia dealer.To be honest I don't particulardly like its shape.The buttons are ok and the picture quality acceptable for printing in 3x2 mini format.It has lots of functions but no wifi (unfortunately).The thing impressed me most is its size.Or rather the lack of it.If you are used to a somewhat outdated shape (Pxx, 7650 etc) it will take a while to get used to.I personally prefer a "bigger" device.Oh yeah the speed is also good.Menu browsing and opening is lighting fast.I hope the battery is not going to suffer to much.

OK. If the menu is slow take it back to your local Nokia dealer and ask him to upgrade the software ! About 5 months ago nokia released demo models of the 6630 not ment for sell.Some dealers are selling them though and to make matters worse they don't even bother to upgrade the software.Take the cell back and let the dealer know you will email Nokia.You may end up getting it for a bargain !

Quite a impressive camera... I must say!
And the phone is not a big as I thought...
Has anyone got that flash accessory for the 6630- I wanna see how good it is compared to those LED 'flashes' |

Some bad news about the 6630:-
taken from russellbeattie.com
Another thing, I was completely surprised that I couldn't take my 512MB RS-MMC out of my 7610 (that Nokia also leant me)and pop it into my 6630. I was warned, but I didn't believe it until I tried it. Yep, Nokia's changed memory standards again and are now using a DualVoltage Reduced Size Multimedia Card (DVRS-MMC).
Oh. My. God.
And people call the MemoryStick proprietary? You can't even 'buy' this memory!!!! Arrrgh. So I'm stuck with the 64MB of RAM that came with the phone,and even though I can hot-swap it out, I have nothing to swap it with. I can deal with this stuff... But the worst thing is something I just discovered last night. I was chatting on Agile Messenger and I swapped over to Opera to look something up and Agile disappeared. It was as if I was low on RAM or something. 'That's strange,' I thought, 'I use two or three apps at once all the time on my 6620...' That's when I found out this morning that Nokia only put 7MB of usable RAM on the phone. The 6620 has something like 30MB and the N-Gage has something like 12MB.
Just to warn you of the memory problems if anyone was thinking of getting this phone...
