Yes Just got off a video call now. It worked fine for me over WIFI. dont have the 3g/4g Xoom so no info in that. It worked as well as my computer. It has already force closed on me once however, but not during the video call.

I can confirm that Video chat works flawless over Wifi, and even tethering 3g & 4g from my HTC EVO onto my Xoom, it works flawless.
Awesome!

ust search ooVoo in the market and u will find it
Installed oovoo and my brother installed it on his pc. We get video but no audio. Our microphones and speakers work fine in other applications. Can't seem to get audio with this one.

Anyone tried oovoo for video calls? It has an option to use ffc in settings.

I tried and it did not really work at all. No FF camera, even though it has the settings for it and no audio.
Just got my son to connect with me and i confirm no ffc or audio. ... Guess nothing works with this FFC

Yahoo Messenger works great. I have been using it on 3g, because I don't get the 4g here yet.
I just tested the T-Mobile branded QIK and it seems to be working. I have attached the apk. I tested it against a myTouch 4G so I'm not sure if it will chat with others. Test if you please.
Video chat force closes .

tried 3 times on my boss' thunderbolt and worked. Tried my cousins evo f/c. Wierd.
Computer to mobile is really more important to me though. Still good find.

+1 I'd love to call my friends on their computers but Skype doesn't want me to and I need a replacement.
Seems to have installed and allowed me to log in and it found my Qik contacts and sync'd them to my contacts which was very cool. However, no one on-line to test it.. Ohwell, maybe tomorrow.
This worked for me on my Thunderbolt. I have stock rom rooted.
The HTC EVO Qik works also, I like it better because it's not branded =P
The only thing I don't like is that neither seemed to work over 4G only on WiFi...it gave me an error that to video call it needed 3G or better, the Thunderbolt was set on 4G and nothing. It only worked on WiFi...anyone else having the same issues?
Attached is the latest Qik for EVO

Same error on mine. Nice to see the EVO one up here. Really would have thought it would have worked as it's a CDMA device as well. Ohwell, would be nice to see QIK make a version for the TB. My buddies Motorola Atrix had an Atrix version of Qik available on the market on launch day for the Atrix. What a shame!
Skype For Android Gets Video
Widespread 3G and cheap Wi-Fi routers have made video calling popular. This has helped applications such as Fring get millions of users in very little time. To catch up with the competition, Skype has now released its version 2.0, capable of video chat for Android.
Right now, Skype 2.0 will only work on Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) devices with front-facing cameras. The list of compatible devices includes the HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia neo, Sony Ericsson Xperia pro, and the Google Nexus S. The company is also working on a plan to cover devices that have currently been left out. The application will work with Wi-Fi as well as 3G. It reportedly supports PC-to-mobile calls, which gives it an edge over the competition. According to Skype, the app also features a completely revamped UI.
If you happen to have a Gingerbread device, download Skype 2.0 here (see original article for link) . Otherwise, check out the following video.

I have found the Market APK does not allow video then, stumbled upon this thread from the i9000 forum.
Skype 2.0 / video-call patched to work with SGS/SGS2 and many other devices!
Mad Props to theos0o
make sure to give him thanks!
Verified this working from Bonsai B12 based on EF02 leak, called a laptop video was great over 3g.
Nice, cant wait for official gingerbread even more
Sweet - this one lets me log in with 4G, the market one didn't.
I feel like a noob for asking, but it downloads as a .rar, how do I install?

Does Skype work with the front facing camera for video chat? I'm thinking of getting the D3, but have heard mixed responses as to whether skype works...
There's no video option on my installed Skype app. Disappointed.

Do tell.
How can my wife and I (both new D3 owner's) video chat with each other?

After today's experience I am not so sure. I connected with a buddy of mine that has an iphone 4 on AT&T....we were both on wi fi....he has 15 down and 15 up....I have 50 down and 50 up.....it was super choppy.
But....when I connected to my wife's D2G it was perfect....but we were also connected to the same exact wireless. Would be interested in testing with someone else farther away that is on wi fi and then again on 3g to post actual review of Tango on the D3.
still cant believe we dont have google talk video. That was like half the reason i bought the phone!
Ok! Good news everyone
Skype video works on D3 now, but not the one verizon or the marketplace provide.
3 simple steps to have skype video:
1. Download the apk file of Skype version 2.0.0.47 from the internet
2. "Clear data" for the existing skype app on your D3 (in the app management)
3. Install the apk file and enjoy skype video on ur spanking new D3
I must say, the video quality is a lot better than my Thunderbolt. It is probably because of the 2 cores
Now, if only Google took itself more seriously... sigh!

i have found yahoo messager to be my choice for video chat.
@triggerftu
I have found skype offering better framerates on my D3, compared to yahoo messenger. No clue if it is the case across the board or just my D3. I would prefer gtalk video, though, since most of my friends use that. So, I guess in the end it all comes down to who u want to chat with and what they use

I'm having the same problem here. I am able to see the user on the computer, but they're not able to see me. I performed several re installations and cleared the cache multiple times, is there something I am missing here? Not quite sure how it is working for some and not others.
