AT&T Unveils Mobile Video Communication Service

Press Release - June 20, 2007

AT&T Wireless is launching a mobile video-sharing service that will allow cell phone users to send live, one-way video feeds during voice conversations.

AT&T Video Share is a step towards increased convergence of wireless, internet, and digital technology, America’s leading wireless carrier said yesterday at the NXTcomm communications conference in Chicago.

“Ultimately, services such as Video Share will be accessible over any of the three primary screens that customers use most frequently: the wireless device, the PC and the television,” AT&T said in a statement.

Video Share is now available in Dallas, San Antonia, and Atlanta, and will be rolled out throughout the rest of AT&T’s 3G service area in late July. It costs $4.99 for 25 minutes/month of video sharing, or $9.99 for 60 minutes. A “pay as you go” option is also available at a cost of $0.35/minute.
