Default Can't shoot video with the Pre?

Am I just dumb or is there really no way to shoot video with this thing? That would be an amazing oversight on their part if that's the case. I've never had a camera phone that didn't do that. Also, is there no way to adjust white balance and other settings or even zoom with the camera? That would be another first. I looked all through the help and can't find any mention of it.

No. It's coming soon with the 1.4 WebOS.
Only way of doing right now is by using Precorder. Look here, http://forums.precentral.net/web-os-...ting-form.html

When the iPhone came out, it could not do video either. That's the fun of buying early. But as stated above the video app is coming this month.

BTW, the iPhone could not Cut & Paste for a long time, but the Pre did it out of the box, so not too shabby

No adjustment on the camera.

I don't think he's not talking about the iphone. He probably had a feature phone.

You think someone with a screen name of Maczealot ( Mac zealot, zealot being a synonym for fanatic ) isn't talking about the iphone? Ok, there is a chance, but I'm calling it a small chance.
