iPhone iPod Touch Available Video Calling
At this time Apple iPhone users have been waiting a long time for this product, and just in time to call up your best friend on New Year's Eve and communicate via video instead of just voice, Skype has delivered video calling to the iPhone.
A video call on mobile phones evolves communication beyond transactional experiences to a shared experience where people can share any occasion with others wherever they are. Whether this is a military father watching the birth of his child while deployed abroad, loved ones communicating via sign language or work colleagues collaborating around the globe – the opportunities are endless.
Before now, Skype was only useful for VoIP calling and messaging. Skype video calling is a feature, but it was reserved for the desktop client and select televisions. Now, video calling is where it should be: right beside FaceTime. What's crazy is that somehow Skype has been able to launch this feature over both Wi-Fi and 3G. Other similar apps have usually launched with support for Wi-Fi only, and even Apple's own FaceTime is restricted to use over Wi-Fi.
