Questions for a Noob -- and the Noob is not me!

So my sister just bought one of these phones. I was naturally excited because I am a huge Android honk. Had my Droid and current Fascinate for a combined 15 months now... Rooted both of them every which way, etc.
My sister on the other hand, not so much. Probably should have sticken with an iPhone. However, I would never actively promote that now that she already has an Android phone.
1st Question I told her I'd look into.... Can you use Skype Video w/o using Wifi? what are your 3G/4G Video Calling options then if Skype will not work?

Tango, ooVoo (AOSP ROMS ONLY), Fring i don't know about skype. I refuse to use it.

FWIW, the MyTouch 4g comes with Qik for video chat pre-installed. Qik was recently bought by Skype. Look for Skype to roll Qik into their app in the near future.

That and every other service works better than Qik even thinks about.

Thanks for the responses.
Just realized, the Skype app didn't even have video yet... Only the unreleased phones from CES do, I believe?
We will see what happens with Qik down the line...

You can't even use Skype voice over 3G (i.e. without WiFi) in the USA, let alone Skype Video when it becomes available. They must have rolled over for the US carriers

face time

Ok how, were, and what do i need to use face time on this thing??

lol facetime is "iFad" not Xoom lol

awwww then no real use for front facing cam other than use it as a mirror lol.

You can only use Google talk to video chat. Only to other xooms or computers.

You can also use Skype and Tango and many other apps... google is the best way to find more apps

You can also use fring, oovoo, tango, and yahoo video

Face time is advertised all over that it is for Apple, that is why I was surprised that someone would think it was for Android.

Yep. Works great on my Evo and xoom

FaceTime is a joke.
Just use Tango (etc.). Cross platform for iOS/Android on 3G and WiFi.

I call face time " face f*&# "

where did you get the .apk for Oovoo? I've used it for years and always found it better than Skype but couldn't find it for the Xoom. All my family uses Oovoo so I would love to be able to chat with them on the go with this thing.

Did I miss something? Can we use Skype for video chat on the Xoom?

Fring crashes on the Xoom... too bad.

The fact that google does not include a more obvious video chat is ridiculous.

Google Music

Has anyone else gotten their invites to the google music beta? it's pretty cool! I only wished we could use it with the stock music app. The Google Music app is kind of lame... but still love the fact that I can listen to all my 60gigs worth of music on my EVO where ever I am

are they still taking requests for invites? I completely missed that whole unveiling.

I signed up the first day. Still haven't got it

Maybe they reached their beta limit.

Has anyone tried any non-DRM material yet? Curious if they've locked that down the way they claimed they would. I lost all my mp3 DRM keys in a tragic boating accident.

I'm still waiting for my invite as well.

I don't own a Xoom but my brother does. A quick trick to get a fast invite was just to log into my Google account on his xoom and download an app from the market. That way it registered as me being a Xoom user So, just find xomeone that has a Xoom, log into your Google account for a minute on their Xoom, download some random app on the market and remote your Google account for their Xoom works like a charm. Three other friends have used my brother's Xoom to get a quick invite to the service.

got a email from sprint about the new Qik

and thought i should share
I'll copy and paste everything cause im lazy
Cool New App
You probably heard the big news, but Qik was acquired by Skype earlier this year. And we’ve been working hard to release our latest rev, adding some great new features. Now you should be able to enjoy live video chat with everyone you know while you’re on the go—even your friends who use iPhones. Yep. That’s right. The new & improved version of Qik Video by Sprint* enables Sprint EVO users to video chat live with anyone who uses an iPhone or Android over 3G, 4G* and WiFi. Plus, you can still instantly record and share videos with your Facebook friends, Twitter followers, on YouTube and more.
*If you have anything other than Qik Video by Sprint, including multiple apps, delete it/them.
**iOS devices do not currently utilize a 4G network.
Save Video & Update Now!
Qik! Follow these steps so you can see what (and who) you're missing!
Save your videos!
Check to see what version of Qik you've got.
IMPORTANT: If you have Qik Video Connect-or anything other than Qik Video by Sprint, even multiple apps-hit DELETE! (It's the ONLY way you'll be able to enjoy all Qik Video by Sprint has to offer!)
Download Qik Video by Sprint!
Check and update your HTV EVO software, too.
Brand New Policies
And because we’re now Skype, we have some new policies in place and our Terms of Use and Privacy Policy have both changed. Effective immediately, the Skype Terms of Use will govern your use of Qik’s software, products and websites and your personal information will be processed in accordance with the Skype Privacy Policy. No action is necessary if you agree with these changes. But if you don’t, you’ll want to review your termination rights in Section 11 of our Terms of Use.
Thank you! We appreciate your support. Keep Qik'king!
LOL @ Qik'king

I'm going to start a micro-blogging site to compete with twitter and call it kweef (yes you read correctly). People will see you on your phone and ask what are you doing; you'll simply say "I'm kweefing". I will have the whole world kweefing soon *evil laugh*. It will support 200 char instead of 160

Yeah that's weird but that app is actually useful though.

Got the same email, but my work area has little 3G coverage and usually roaming. Tried videochat when it first came out and kept dropping off calls. If the coverage was better in my area I'd prolly use this more often.

I agree, despite the name I use tikl all the time. One of the most used / longest used apps on my phone. It great that it works on all android and iphones no matter what the network. The developer is constantly improving it also. Not sure why there is not pay/donate/adfree version.
