i hope theyre not thinking of doing this on ATT's network. you think dropped calls are bad now? once ipad and next gen iphone are released, its going to be awful. maybe they could offer a feature like this over wifi?

Yea i agree with u I dnt think the AT&T network would be able to handle video calling because video calling uses alot of data . I think it would work better over wifi

@JRCROW79 True AT&T has had VideoShare for years...These are the prices. You can also do it for .35/min Video Share $4.99/mo. Video Share $9.99/mo. Minutes per Month 25 60 Additional Usage $0.30 per minute $0.25 per minute No one else has anything close to VideoShare, so I wouldn't say it sucks. I've found it very useful You can switch back and forth the camera and its on speaker phone the whole time. AT&T is upgrading its network from 3.6 to 7.2 to get ready for 4G and expanding its 3G coverage. They are lifting data caps on the iPhone so that should be a good sign of progress. 2-way video chat would be a nice feature, but I hope they have other improvements in the version 4.0 and that new handset better be bad ass. I need a new phone I am leaning towards Windows 7 or Android...what's going on Apple?

This is pretty cool...I mean, they have video share on AT&T, but it isn't very popular. Many people have iPhones now and probably are able to upgrade soon to a new version with video chat. If that was to come included with the plan, I'm sure this would be a pretty kickass feature. I never did video chat till I got a macbook and used iChat. I hope it could be the same with the iPhone.

If VZW has a deal with Skype and if the new iPhone has a front facing camera maybe VZW will get the iPhone and then you could use Skype on VZW's version. Just a thought.

yea i agree wit steviewonders, this feature has been on phones for years specially nokias, jus look at how long it took for the iphone to have basick simple features(mms 3g n 3gs) video only on 3gs, 3.2mp camera. Dam my nokia N95 had all this features and more even before the iphone was out, lol
