Well if it lets dust in then the only solution will be removing the lens cover. I really can't see a point for it to be there apart from giving a bit of protection for the actual lens cover. But for me, who uses the krussel classic case, there is already good protection from pressure or dammge on the "real" mechanical lens cover.
And from the pics iv'e seen it seems easy to take off the back cover. Onle one screw and the usage of a plastic card to loosen the backside of the phone.

"The camera isn't that great!" ???
I've seen this stated all too often in this thread yet I do not understand.
* Does it not take photos in 1/3/5MP resolutions?
* Does it not record videos in QVGA @ 30fps ?
* Does it not produce incredible photos better than most if not ALL the competition (N95 variants, LG Viewty, N82, etc) ?!? There are MANY of you that are complaining about its camera yet STILL defending it in the "post your pictures & video taken by the K850i" thread.
So what on Earth are you ppl - that are not happy with the camera - complaining about?! Seriously, and Honestly without contradicting yourselfs??
I'm wondering if many ppl here are NOT suffering from Legendary Phone syndrome.
(Legendary Phone Syndrome) def. (sic): Is when a person is woo'd over by a phones technology so much that any revision of that same technology - no matter the increasingly useful features - cannot compare and thus fall as inadequate. ie K750i users still stunned by camera abilities augmented by cam drivers - seemingly to those sufferers that currently own a K850i (2nd marketed revision of the K750i after the K790/800).

Exactly.. no phone camera can rival a real digital camera. It's got dedicated and expensive optical technology to make it for what it's worth.

just try to compare it with the k810i's camera, and later maybe u'll notice what we mean by "isn't that great"....

have you ever zoomed in on pictures?
yes i have, its fine i dont see whats the big fuzz
i even compared the zoom with a k800 not much of a difference
What i mean is, after zooming a picture with the +/- volume keys i cannot change the volume in the media player unless i reboot the phone.
i just tried that, seems to work fine

But for someone like me that has waited and only now seriously contemplating purchasing a K850i.
I own the K790a and its the same as the K800 when it comes to stock camera performance. So I have a reference point, and from what I've seen in others photos the K850i seems to be MUCH MUCH better; and not solely due to the 1.7MP difference.
So "isn't that great" when refering to the K790a/i or K800/K810's camera is nothing I can weigh.

Well iv'e been a bad boy and removed the covering glass over the camera..see what boredom and desperation that comes from waiting for the new firmware can do to a man!!
I probably voided my warranty now but i think i can put the glass back if i have to take my phone to a repair shop..oh wait..we don't, since december 2007, have any SE-repair shops any longer in Sweden...well we do have one one big crappy repair shop that you send your phone to via your retailer. But they are the worst...can't be bothered to elaborate that but if you can imagine it, they have done it!

Guys... You'll not belive... I don't know how it is possible... BUT... Yesterday's evening my friend (he has a cell phone service) called me and asked me why am I so frustrate last days. I told him all about SE and their update politic and then he said: "Well, you probably don't know, but there is FW 038 (yes, it's R1DA) for... unbranded phones (I know how it sounds, but it's true!) - GENERIC_SO! For UNBRANDED phones!!! But that's not over - the best part of it is, that this FW is available from 27.12.07!!! Shock! I'm going to him today at 1 p.m. (12 a.m. GMT) to check is this not a joke, but I think that I will return to home with new FW

Of course as soon as possible I'll write on forum from where it can be download
PS.: S.F.M.E. - sorry for my english
PS.: A week ago I loved SE. Now I'm only a user...
