no physical camera button! :-(

One of my favorite things about the OG Droid and Droid 2 (and Droid X) are the physical, two-stage camera buttons that make it much easier to focus, line up your shot, and hold the phone steady while using the camera. I hate poking the screen to take a picture, especially because you cannot control focus and then have to wait while the camera focuses and takes the pic first, this is a huge step down in my opinion and without that and 4G I'll wait for the Droid 4, which I hope has both.

No physical camera button seems to be the trend now. Now the specs say it records in 1080P but it never gives the resolution on the front camera. I guess it must be a VGA one.

If it can record in 1080P then it would have a minimum of 2 Megapixels. 1080P = 1920 X 1080 which is 2.07 million pixels.

Well Moto and Verizon both say, 'Front Facing Webcam for Video Chat ' so nothing specific. No mention either of what video chat software is included, if any.

More likely it would be 1.3 for the front face camera like the rest of the front face cameras out there. And also like all VZW phones it will come with Skype mobile. S/W doesn't matter when you have the Android market to download any other app that helps with video chat.

VGA is 640x480, which is 0.3 Megapixel. Many many front facing cameras are VGA only.
