Qik announced that they are going to provide a shortcut for “video streaming software” which will be preinstalled on Nokia’s just-launched 5800 tube touchscreen phone – this could be good move because most of the mobile phone users are reluctant to download new software.
Over Wi-Fi, Qik allows users to stream live video recordings directly from their phones or high-speed data networks, which turn phone into a “mobile television studio” enabling users to watch the video live on Qik’s homepage or in embeddable players scattered across the web. The software is available for a variety of phone models that include jailbroken versions for the iPhone, however Apple has yet to allow any video apps on iPhone.
