have you ever heard about the new way to call? i mean this new telephone let you not only dial but deliver video and also audio in a common conversations as well as take some photos (some times they are very useful) to the person you are talking with, it says in anear future you could send sms, download ringtons and other things. It's been a long time since a technoly like this was released, unfortunately it is available in mexico and and the fee is 10 dollar cents even so it is an attractive way to talk, have a look at http://telmex.com/videotelefono/dialup/tarifas.html

I have heard about it and it freaks me out. I mean what if you accidently send a porn video to your wife and it is not your wife but some old fat dude that likes to get people. Not trying to be disgusting but that can really happen and I would be really scared getting a video from that dude with him naked.

Well the link isn't working, did you type it wrong or is it just not working right now? Well anyway I think that I have heard something about it before. It is sort of like using a web cam with a computer to talk online and chatting with people. I would like to see the actual web page though to see what this is.

The technology for video calling has been around for a while. Many companies use video conferancing to consult with business partners in a differant country or differant part of their country. Most of the time it is on a computer through high speed internet. There are a few video phones out there now. But its really not a great investment because not that many people have a video phone. I think that someday it will become a thing that most people will have. But the option will still remain to hide your face and make it voice only. There is so much that is still needed before it becomes a reality that everyone will see.

First of, yes the link is not working.

Being able to use chatting with webcam and voice I can say that this would be our furture telecommunication, hearing the voice of your love ones is a great feeling what more if you can see them. This will benefit mostly those who are away with their families and friends.

For now I think this is still a long way to go and even if it is available now usage cost is not that practical yet.
