High FPS on MSN Messenger

[Efrain]

For a few days last April the MSN Messenger was
transmitting at a higher frame per second, (18fps, almost
as watching TV), than their usual 3 or less. Is this what
they have been advertising, in conjunction with Logitech,
for next summer? Will they charge for the premium
service, or is it going it be free, as a payment for all
our sufferings from Netmeeting to MSN Messenger ?

Greetings,

"Next summer"? MSN Messenger 7 is out -now-, they're not advertising for anything else.

There is no fee.

"Microsoft on Wednesday said it will enhance audio and
video features of its messaging software later this year.
The company has teamed up with Logitech to provide
integrated video and audio services designed to let
customers see and talk to each other over MSN Messenger.

The upgraded service will be available this spring to MSN
Messenger 7.0 customers in the United States and Germany,
Microsoft said. The existing partnership between the two
companies has resulted in the addition of Webcam
functionality to the messaging service."

My question is about the frames per second.
