This is not completely true, the k700i can not be used as a true webcam. The BT connection is too slow to transfer the data. Second, at the P800 only has GPRS, there is not enough bandwidth to transport video. Finally, why waste time with this solution with the smart option would be to use a real webcam and a PC?

every year theres a question like this
sadly nobody finds it important enough to make the right software
With Ericsson and Nokia gone: we must keep their spirits alive and buy JOLLA or YOTA

Maybe the developers think that this is a stupid idea to waste time and energy considering the Pxx series can only communicate via GPRS and this is not fast enough for webcam solutions. Maybe they think that it would be easier and surly smarter to use a REAL webcam and PC combination.
