I have seen lots of people asking about this, but unfortunately I have not seen anybody mention that it can be done.

The maker of EJ's Fullscreen Utilities always said it should be possible, but he always seems to be busy and updates come slowly. Maybe it will happen someday though (by then I will have upgraded my NR, I'm afraid).

Here's a link:

Its not too far away... :)

Dont sell your NR's just yet, because right now it does not seem that Sony will release the Camera API for the NX/NZ series so it might not be possible to use the app on these devices. [Dont you NX/NZ users get (very) upset with Sony for not releasing the SDK so that us developers can make software that uses the camera?]

But it works great on the NR70V :)

If you would like to sign up for betatesting write an email to cliewebcam@hotmail.com and you will be contacted when betatesting begins [ and if we need more betatesters].

vivid doesn't work as a webcam, but the vivid people were being very secretive about their program, and the contact address for it was clievideo@hotmail.com so a logical assumption would be that the same people who did vivid are indeed working on a webcam program.....

unregistered... perhaps very shy would be more appropriate !

If they are teh guys behind Vivid I imagine it will look great, but be over-priced. Heck at this rate with all the upgrades to my NR70V I may as well wait a few months and get an NZ90 when the next generation rolls off the Sony production line !

There's a problem of vivid.
If your "Clie" has installed yishow, you can't install vivid.
It's make your "Clie" always error...and you must reset your "Clie"!(I mean you will lost all data in your "Clie"!)
be careful! everybody!
