turn your real camera into a front camera?

[Guest DannyDanny]

Hey I am heavily into video calls and as we all know blade do not

have front facing camera to support it.

Ive found rather interesting devices to make it possible. (kinda...)

One is Veinworks which is more like a universal panel to suit most mobile phones, but

its too chunky and big that it is not really portable.

The other is iseeu that is much portable and stylish that suits my need, but its

designed for iphone 3gs.

manufacturers say that it may work with some devices with similar thickness and

position of the rear camera but I am not sure if blade suits that.

--------------------------------------

I thought these are worth looking into. Can you guys suggest more of these accessories

that may suit blade?

I'm kind of torn between thinking that the iSeeU is really lame, and thinking that it's one of those genius "why didn't I think of that" ideas! I'm sure the clip could be modified or packed out for a snug fit around the Blade.

Anyway, I did a bit of searching and found the iSeeU on eBay for £8.99 delivered (from the UK) if anyone's interested.

yeah found it from ebay too. Im really tempted to get 1. I emailed the iseeu manufacturer if it could support other devices such as the blade

Dont know what they will say but lets wait and see. Will update with the reply.

That's kinda neat

I used mine for video chat over christmas by pointing my phone at a mirror while talking to family, but it was a bit of a fool's errand

Let us know if it fits the blade if you take the plunge!

[Guest DannyDanny]

just an update.

got the reply back from the iseeu, and they came back with some lame standard reply.

It is designed for 3gs and it may work with other devices with similar proportion but you may get some

unwanted borders on the reflection..

For that matter, I found something even better.

This just gets attached to devices with flat sufface (and its adjustable for an obvious reason..)

These things dont reqire the latest technology so DIY can be worth giving a go, but for those

who cant be bothered? you have 3 choices :D
