Default Is anyone else wondering the same thing about the verizon Samsung fascinate ?

I recently bought the Verizon Samsung fascinate, and so far its a good phone, how ever I do notice acouple of odd things about it. On the corner left top side of the phone there appears to be a front facing camera and LED notification light, maybe I might sound retarded for saying This but, it doesn't work. I'm wondering is it because Verizon crippled the function, or is it because I just haven't figuered it out yet? I'd appreciate any comments regarding these two misteries.

I bet you told your little brothers and sisters the truth about Santa!

I knew it wasn't a camera, but wished it was.

I wish this was like the Vibrant with its 16GB and free Avatar ( still have on my 32GB sd even though I cant play it)

Fascinate has a better processor, better gpu, and better memory. The display is better, though the resolution is slightly higher on the X, it's a slightly larger screen, so its a wash. X has more mp, but the camera as well as photo quality are better on the fascinate. This is better hardware. I'll admit I'm not a fan of touch wiz, but we have no bombs bolt into our phones, so development should come faster and stronger.
Amen.
