AT&T Shares Video

CHICAGO -- AT&T Inc. (NYSE:T) has announced the launch of AT&T Video Share, the first-ever service in the U.S. that allows users to share live video over their wireless devices while participating in a voice call. AT&T Chairman and CEO Randall Stephenson highlighted the service during the opening keynote of the NXTcomm industry event.

Video Share allows users to communicate special or everyday experiences in ways never before possible. Consumers can now share moments with family and friends while the moments are happening -- everything from weddings and a baby's first steps to a Little League at-bat or a clearance-sale find. The service also enables a range of innovative, time-saving business applications, from viewing real estate or retail displays to facilitating insurance claims or troubleshooting efforts.

"Even in today's fast-changing environment, it's rare to see a new service that truly redefines the possibilities of communication," Stephenson said. "AT&T Video Share is just that sort of service. Users now have the ability to show others exactly what they see, when they're seeing it, and to share that experience across town or across the country."
