v600 camera vs. the flip

I can't take a picture with the flip closed (except for a single auto-timed picture). The motorola help for picture taking explicitly states that the v600 was designed to take pictures with the flip closed using the smart key.

Has anyone succeeded in this? How? When I close the flip in capture mode, it also reopens on the home screen with no pictures anywhere.

Is it not working for me because I have the AT&T version?

Thanks in advance...

I tried with mine which is not locked to a network and I cannot do it.

Same with V500. The Guide says you can do it but you can't. I suspect the
feature was disabled in later firmware after users found they were taking
lots of pictures of the insides of their pockets or handbags/purses.
