I think it'd be fun to try out AT&T's video calling service with a front facing camera, even though it'd only be one way. Maybe even use some video conferencing software, which I know is not allowed by AT&T's tyrannical TOS but it'd only be a couple times for the novelty, which I feel is low risk for getting busted.
Your question also makes me wonder what O2 users will use it for? Does O2 have video calling like AT&T, maybe something even better? Is O2's TOS more liberal, allowing video conferencing software? If not, then why didn't they cut out the camera?
Given that most people who buy this PDA + 3G + GPS phone are going to be tech savvy, I'm sure they'd appreciate that unique feature. Still, it all comes down to cost. If taking out the camera saved me (not them) $25, they should have kept it in, but if it saved me $100, then I am glad they took it out.
