Tango | Free mobile video calls wherever you are. I admit that I have been jealous of one feature that iPhone users have had, before I bought the Thunderbolt by HTC. That feature is a front-facing camera, and the ability to do video phone calls. Some iPhone users, and AT&T, have also bragged about the ability to talk and text or browse the web at the same time. Android has always permitted multi-tasking; but, it put the browsing in suspended animation while talking on the phone. The Thunderbolt solves all of those problems, and then some. The Verizon LTE network is the fastet 4G network out there. The Thunderbolt has true multi-tasking, and can simultaneously run both phone and web and other applications. And, it has a great front-facing camera. She Who Must Be Obeyed had to have a Thunderbolt when she saw mine; and, now, we happily video chat away. Tango provides a free Android and iOS way to do that, and it works on both WiFi and 3G and 4G. So, if you have an iPhone, download Tango, and give me a call. The downside is that we have to look at each other while we talk. Of course, you can turn off the camera if you want, and, with the push of a button, the call transfers your video to your back camera so that you can show the other party what you are seeing around you. As more people around the world sign up, users will now have both audio and video contact with anyone in the world on their mobile devices. Now THAT should make some dictators very nervous.
Rick - let's hook up and do a video chat!!!
