FOSTER CITY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE [1])--Qik, Inc., the live mobile video streaming platform, announced its
support of Windows Mobile phones. Qik is now available on the Motorola Q
and Samsung BlackJack as well as the Nokia N-Series phones. The Qik
service is now in limited availability through an invitation only alpha
program.

With Qik’s free live video streaming service,

their mobile phone, and join others as they watch online and engage in
live interactive chat. Everyone from journalists to politicians use Qik
to be transparent in their reporting and campaigning on a global Web
platform. Parents are using Qik to effortlessly share family experiences
that are occurring in the moment. With a simple to use interface and
