Re: Fring...

damn, this sucks - I had plans to use my phone to video chat when on vacation instead of taking a laptop. What the hell is taking them so long on a true Skype app for the EVO?!?!

Re: Fring...

If you read into the Skype reply, you can see that the just realized how BIG video chat is going to be. True they need to protect their brand, but Fring never claimed it was a Skype server capacity or anything issue. but an issue on their own servers being able to handle it all.

Then if you read into it further you see that perhaps now Fring's video chat capabilities might be in direct competition now with Skype's.

Hopefully this will stir up more competition and Fring will not be our only choice.

Trillian for Android is in the works. Perhaps this will wake up MSN, Yahoo, AOL and Google video chat compatible apps.

Who ever gets the foot hold on this may have their next BIG bucks break in the market!
