I'm desperately awaiting a way to do gmail video chatting. I use gmail chat almost exclusively and the only way I can video chat and see my nephew is through google video. For some reason my brother's ISP won't allow him to use skype video, we can talk through skype but not video, it's the strangest thing. Tried several diff computers (PC and Mac) and it's a no go. Very frustrating.

Outside my iPad, or was it inside?

There is no need to wait. Install the free Vtok all and enjoy Gmail video calling.

Keep in mind, that it only supports video/audio calling, so you can't write text while calling, same as Skype, I believe.

Anyway, just download it and call all your gmail buddies :D

Assuming your using an iPad and would like a free app thar consolidates various IM accounts I'd teccommmend the IMO.im
I have always used IM+ but the idea of paying for it again to include skype doesn't sit well with me besides IMO.IM is fast & simple IM+ could look more aesthetically pleasing with the background n all but to each their own
