Ok here I go then---
Overclocking "May" only increase overall call/connection quality due to bandwidth factors, but not dramatically.... correct? If so, I won't bother wtih overclocking for now.

And with the Linksys Router... presuming the person at the PC end of my outbound call has Messenger... the call should punch right through their Router, correct?

Well then I'll run an experiment outside of my Intranet tomrrow.

Given the direction of this conversation, I am lead to ask: What would be acceptable video on a handheld device? (Thinking in terms of frame rate, compression artifacts, and dimensions.)

thanks for the update....

is it just me or are you unable to flip the video, when the camera is pointing at me (Hitachi G1000) the video is obviously upside down, is there a setting to correct this? I have Portrait 2.3

just soft reset your device. there is a thread on that here in this forum talking about the camera "flipover failure"...

Ya soft reset (or sometimes two) should cure it, happens to me all the time...
Tom

Not only did this program freeze up my computer when I lost my IP address, it also froze my G1000 at the same time while they were connected. Had to reset both. I'm not really feeling this program...

sorry to hear. have not had that problem....

You can also reset the camera profile and that should flip the video to the proper orientation.

Really? never tried that, I'll have to next time it happens...
Tom

It was my understanding that resetting the camera profile was supposed to do the same thing as a soft reset without the reset. Evidently Hitachi was aware of the flip over problem and added this option.

It could be that I have only had 5 hours of sleep in 2 days, but where is this darn camera reset option?

start menu/settings/phone/data

oh silly me, of course the settings for the camera are in the Phone/data section... that makes so much sense...

that also resets your picture mail settings when uploading to the picture mail server. just dont forget them, if you reset the camera it will ask you for your username/pswd...
