Fring Overwhelmed by Video Calling, Temporarily Suspends Access to Skype
Bertrand Vasquez | Jul 09, 2010 | Comments 8

Yesterday, Erictric reported that Apple approved a Fring update that allows 2-way video calling to other mobile platforms over 3G. Apparently, the improved application has become a huge success, as the company briefly announced today on its blog that for the time being they are suspending access to third-party Skype in order “to free up capacity” for better Fring-to-Fring video calls. The company indicates that since they announced 2-way video calling over 3G yesterday, they have witnessed some network stress.
No information as to when they’ll begin supporting access to Skype again.
