Fring brings video calls to the iPhone and iPod Touch
Fring is a mobile chat service that's available on a lot of devices and allows for both IM and voice chat. Recently, the folks at Fring have stepped up their game and started to offer mobile video chat, too, which leads to their big announcement this week: now you can video chat on your iPhone or iPod Touch. Your buddies don't necessarily have to have Fring to chat. Since Fring plugs into several different chat services, Skype calls are supported, too. So far, video chat only goes one way on the iPhone, because the camera is in the back.
Understandably, that makes things a bit impractical when you want to see your friend and be seen at the same time. On the other hand, you can now make mobile calls to a friend with webcam and see her face, which is more than you could do on the iPhone before.
If you want two-way video calling, it's already available via Fring on some Nokia devices.

Simple solution ... aim the lens end at you, and the screen at a mirror (LOL).

Wouldn't that work better the other way around? It would be basically like all those pics high school girls post of themselves on MySpace and Facebook...but video. ;)
