I have been looking for hours, and just cant find anything useful.
I have a t-mobile vario 2, wm5. Is there any software out there that will enable me to use my built in camera as a webcam on pocket msn.
Thanks Ant [/u]

AFAIK, Pocket MSN (I'm assuming you mean Messenger) doesn't support video, so you could have ended your search there. Not much around that extends the functionality of MSN IM. What it is, is what it is.
Skype Mobile doesn't support Video yet either.
My JasJar does support video calls, but only if connected to a 3G network and the JasJar only supports 2100MHz WCDMA, which I don't have around here.
I assume your Vario has a Video call button on it since it sports a front side camera. Does it work for you?

Any updates on this one?
I also have a Vario 2, and wondered if anyone has used there built in camera on pocket msn.
thanks Ant.

Sven is spot on about Pocket MSN's lack of video support (and I haven't seen any hacks that give it that sort of functionality), so you're essentially at a dead end.
For general purpose webcam functionality, though, check out WebCamera Plus.
