Sprint Evo 4G spotlights video conferencing

Sprint's 4G phone provides video chat.

The Evo 4G now on sale at Sprint’s online store has a 4.3-inch display and two cameras: an 8 megapixel autofocus camera that captures HD video, and a forward-facing 1.3 megapixel camera for two-way video calling.

It is preloaded with Qik Video Chat, which “allows you to experience events as they happen,” the company says, “even if you can’t be there. Attend a meeting across the country and feel like you are truly there, watch your child’s performance live on your mobile phone, or pick up a Qik Video Message from a friend who wants to share an exciting adventure. The Qik Video Chat app enables interactive, real-time sharing with almost anyone, whether the other party has Qik installed or not.”

The Android 2.1 phone is $200 with a two year contract.
