AT&T announced at the NXTcomm communications conference in Chicago to launch a video sharing service for its wireless customers, which allows customers to send one-way, live streaming video feeds while participating in a two-way voice conversation.
The AT&T Video Share service requires a special handset and one of two service packages. The cost of the service is $4.99 a month, which allows customers 60 minutes of usage. Users can use this service while roaming also and pay 35 cents per minute for using the service.
Currently, the service is available on AT&T’s 3G wireless service in Atlanta, Dallas and San Antonio and later on, it would be extended throughout its next generation network.
AT&T Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson, said,
Even in today’s fast-changing environment, it’s rare to see a new service that truly redefines the possibilities of communication. “AT&T Video Share is just that sort of service. Users now have the ability to show others exactly what they see, when they’re seeing it, and to share that experience across town or across the country.
