Comments on: Treo 750v doesn’t actually do 3g video? http://www.mobileindustryreview.com/2006/11/treo_750v_doesnt_actually_do_3g_video.html Daily news and opinion for 250,000 industry executives and mobile fanatics Tue, 14 Feb 2012 22:14:00 +0100 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: steve procter http://www.mobileindustryreview.com/2006/11/treo_750v_doesnt_actually_do_3g_video.html/comment-page-1#comment-8700 steve procter Tue, 21 Nov 2006 17:44:25 +0000 http://www.smstextnews.com/2006/11/treo_750v_doesnt_actually_do_3g_video.html#comment-8700 yes fair do's it only has one camera, maybe that was an obvious. but what if I want to call a video shortcode for receiving-only of streaming video (which in fact is what I did want to do today when I discovered my huge cockup)? What I'm wondering is where has Vodafone's strategy taken the turn that says "ok we like 3G for data (especially as we rip the user off with stupid data charges) but we no longer believe in 3G video calling". After all this is one of their new top flagship handsets and so if they have no belief any more that even Treo users want 3G video then it strikes me that a big operator has taken a big strategic turn here without any of us noticing. So what does that now leave in terms of potential services that can payoff and justify the 3G licences!!?? steve procter yes fair do’s it only has one camera, maybe that was an obvious. but what if I want to call a video shortcode for receiving-only of streaming video (which in fact is what I did want to do today when I discovered my huge cockup)?

The Treo only has ONE camera? Geez! Seriously if you’d given me 10 questions on the Treo, I’d have said it would have had a camera on the front.

The Treo only has ONE camera? Geez!

You don't need to read any small print to notice that! If the man on the street can't work out that a video call requires a small camera pointing at you, they should keep to text messaging.
