Skype va implementa apelurile video pe iPhone

Un document aparut pe site-ul Skype indica faptul ca foarte curand compania va introduce un nou serviciu ce va permite apelurile video de pe terminalele iPhone. Skype va introduce un serviciu care va permite initierea de apeluri video intre iPhone/iPod Touch-uri dar si intre iDevice-uri si desktop-uri cu Skype instalat. Practic Skype va aduce oamenilor un fel de FaceTime care insa va functiona din start cu majoritatea terminalelor, va functiona si pe Windows dar si pe conexiuni 3G/Wi-Fi.

Totusi cei de la Skype ar putea face fi primii care ar aduce apelurile video intre iOS/Android/Symbian/Windows Phone 7 insa asta vom vedea luna viitoare la CES 2011 cand este programata lansarea acestui serviciu.
