Hello
Does anyone know if cross network videos calls are possible vodafone to three and vise versa.
I remember sending MMS cross networks took a long time to happen, especially on three

Yep, 55p per minute from Vodafone (only 5p per minute more than a same-network call would cost on 3). No idea what 3 charge for cross-net, probably about £1 per minute knowing them.

Worth noting that Vodafone-Vodafone video calls are 35ppm. 3 may just have a flat rate of 50ppm for anynet domestic video calls - haven't checked their website to find out though.

I can see three reducing the price as more people uses the video calling

Three have a rate of 50p for video calls, but as they were the only 3G net working at the time, I would take it to be 3 to 3 only.

This may change now that vodafone is up and running, also anyone got the live it book from vodafone they refer to Pay as You Talk.

You can also connect to vodafone live 3G on pay as you talk?

The motorola V980 is shown as £200 on pay as you talk?

I could see OFCOM getting pretty heavily involved if cross-network video calls were not available, or very expensive.....I would think its part of their license agreements that this facility is crucial.

I'm wondering what the video quality will be like on Voda - on Three its pretty crappy.

I would guess the same quality, it depends on a loads of factors e.g which handsets being used, network coverage etc.
For me Three's video calls have been decent I didnt expect too much and my friends have been impressed by it
I went into vodafone shop today, to check out the moto E1000 as I intend to get on Three. Its a great phone, vodafone has a got a great range, I do worry for Three becuase things might get though for them. Thats competition for you.
