Not sure if this question has been asked yet. I just recently purchased a Kinect. The Kinect Video uses msn messenger to chat with video. Is there any way or any app on the EVO that would allow for chatting between the two devices?

I can video chat with another handheld on QIK or FRING, but i haven't figured out how to do a video chat with a person who only has a laptop with camera.
Is this possible, are there instructions on what to do .?
You can use skype with fring.

is it Possible to video chat with iPhone users? Or develop an app for andriod users and Os4 users???
Give me some answers or thoughts on this topic.

I think we now have to wait for Skype to release they're own video apps. AFAIK this was possible via Fring but then Skype had that whole fit over it & made Fring remove the service.
So at the moment, i think we just have to sit back & wait.

Hopefully they dont take long to release this skype app, i found the apk for skype 3 but then found out its not for video calls and it only works in the uk and some other countries.

you might be able to use fring to go between them, yes it has no skype but if i'm not mistaken you can still use fring video chat on both devices

Wow...I didn't even realize that Fring didn't have skype anymore...I have no use for this app now...goodbye!
They got overloaded by all the evo and iphone users. Skype was hurting on their end as well.
As far as video chat goes, I was hoping to use my Gmail account to initiate a video call/chat with a friend of mine using her Gmail also via Fring. Come to find out...Fring doesn't support this either!
One of the main reasons that people like me got the evo, was for the video chat. Now that Fring no longer uses Skype, that front cam hasn't been touched for a long time.
Is there any other way to video chat with people on the computer? My girlfriend doesn't have a smartphone that can use fring. I was hoping maybe we could use Yahoo or MSN but i can't find one that uses web chat...any help?
You could use Sipdroid if you both have SIP accounts, and the one on her end supports video chat.
(SIP is an open framework, more like email; it's not a closed network like AIM, YIM, WLM, etc.)
Skype is in beta, I really hope they include video chat eventually =/
Was really hoping to be able to do this as well.
I had the HTC hero and had received a skype.apk that was from verizon (worked on sprint and the heros as it allowed the voice chat that was a verizon exclusive). Unfortunately on my Hero it was always running and it bogged down performance/battery.
Now that I have an EVO I would like to use this again and was curious if I could use the one from the market and get voice on Sprint, or do I still have to use the Verizon version to get the voice chat.
Can we do video chat yet now that we have a front camera like the Iphone? Or has that not been ported for us yet?
You can do voice chat and calls over WiFi.
You cannot do voice chat or calls over 3G.
You cannot do video chat or calls at all.
There's a hacked version of Skype which allows voice chat and calls over 3G for phones in the USA.
Hello.
I don't see the qik t-mobile video chat in the note 2. It was pre-installed when I was using the S2.
what video chat app are you guys using?
skype... you can video chat while typing a message to the other person... plus they don't have to be on their phones...

I use skype also, works perfectly and video quality is great.
Qik got purchased by Skype. Skype is know owned by Microsoft.
Skype is good Video/Audio chat service.
Google Talk works not bad too.

Mostly everyone I speak to is on G+ so we can hangout or video chat on there, but Skype is a good alternative. Especially since the other person doesn't have to be on their phone.
thanks for all the replies,
If the other person is on t-mobile, and I use skype to video chat his cell phone. Is the video chat going to be free?

Skype to skype is always free, data will be used (or wifi), but no minutes from plan.
