Default Video Camera and Chat?

I remember hearing that the video camera on the Universal might not be useable for Internet conferencing. Does anyone know if this is correct? Sorry if this is a silly question, but what exactly CAN it be used for?

the whole bell and whistles of 3G or UTMS if you want
was that you could do video phoning
so that would be the purpos of the cam i guess
it's also mentioned in the o2 sales pdf which i thing
was removed because o2 (or was it tmobile) got upset
because their internal doc's ended up here
hhhmm ok i may be a jerk but i'm a jedi jerk like my father was before me

So what about internet conferencing? Will that be possible? I assume that would require some MSN-like software, or would there be a way to send video via the internet?

if the applications were made and the camera supported it's really very early to say anything for surden

all we have right now is

you hearing that it will not work

try asking you where you heard it :P

I hope no one asks me where I heard it... ops: too much information, brain too small :shock:

Dale Coffing says some things about the video conferencing at http://dalecoffing.typepad.com/my_we...impressio.html

Why does he say that he needed a SIM card to check the video conferencing?
