Very cool!! Anyone know a time frame??? One was not given on the link, BUT Facebook now does NOT detect the PB camera as a webcam...need that fixed first...
That would be a good step in the right direction. All we need is this online playbook to desktop video chat app that works decently instead of skype. imo.im is a little difficult to use.
imo.im works... but yea its quite difficult to use :3 hands down.
very cool.
Time to start testing this with our Playbooks!!!
I'm watching the live stream of the announcement right now and it appears a plugin will be required for the browser. I'm really hoping that it works with the PlayBook browser, but as someone alluded to in my other post about this subject, it may just take an update to our tablet-ready facebook app (that iPad doesn't have :P ).
I missed that plugin part...bummer.
I just tried it on my PC and it made me download and install a setup.exe. So don't hold your breath.. I'll go try on my PB now and add an update here..
UPDATE: Nope.. Doesn't work on the PB.. :(
And queue disappointment .... now

Sorry, something went wrong.
