Video chat in BlackBerry PlayBook
At last I bought BB Playbook last week.I was waiting for a long to buy playbook but launching of Google Nexus 7 made me wait.I am from india and price of Google nexus available here (Online) is around 320$ for a 8 GB.While i got my BB Playbook 64GB online for just 275$.
Before buying Playbook,I made a detail search online about the feedback from users and didnt see any negative feedback other than lacks of Apps (mainly skype).Actually there is lot of applications ported from android to use in Playbook.[For example : Twittercaster,Plume for twitter , ReaditLater or Pocket for Offline reading while travelling or out of wi-fi,Free Books from Kindle,Google maps,VLC player for streaming and lot more]
Here Blackberry Playbook Android Apps | Good e-Reader Android App Store - Playbook App Store you can find lot of android applications and how to install it in playbook.its really simple [I am not sure whether anyone shared it before.if so sorry]
And coming to title video chat,There is a website called AV by AOL - Let's video chat! .its pretty awesome .You or your partner/friends dont need skype or any other software to make video calls through it.its completely web based.I tried it today.its clean and clear.There is no lag [If your internet connection is good] .You dont even need to sign in
Steps
- Just login to AV by AOL - Let's video chat! through default playbook browser
- Check box for Age Verification
- Click on Start video Chat
- After checking your camera and microphone you will get a link.
- share that link with your friend/partner through Email/SMS/Call.After they clicking link and opening in any browser you can start video call with them
Pros :
There is no need of software
You can Video chat,Voice chat,Take Photos,Send text messages
Chat from anywhere.Even if skype is not installed on your friends computer
Hope this helps :)
