Default qik released on android

The video sharing / social networking site has released a client for android. Having never used this before it does seems well implemented, but the Qik site seems to be running really slow for me.

Could also be that my 3g connection is not up to streaming the video from my phone. Anyone else tried this out? Not sure I would have any use for this, but I can see that some people will love it.

Isn't this what Robert Scoble used to ambush people with interviews at press events?

Works great, from what I can see -- even over just Edge (couldn't get a blackberry curve to do that when I tried Qik).

Is there any way to decrease the quality of the video so it'll stream better?

Every phone I have used Qik on had about a 30 second delay.

i just noticed that delay right now... why the delay? Should the 3G be fast enough to handle the stream?

It seems like it cuts off the end of videos I have recorded, not sure why though.
