Summary : A previous post (video from yesterday) gave examples of prior art from the early/ier 1990s, debunking the EPO's foolish and irrational embrace of this notion that so-called 'ViCo' is so absolutely incredible (we've kept talking, e.g. in many prior videos, about how the only real 'innovation' was connection speeds); MinceR recalls that "when UMTS ("3G") was new, video calls on mobile was the feature that was supposed to sell the technology" and in the mid-80s you could already see who you spoke to (almost) in real time
