Qik releases Android update, officially brings high-res recording

Good news for those of you who love video (we're told it's all the rage with the kids these days): Qik has officially released version 0.1.56, bringing 720x480-pixel recording to its Android app and, more specifically, the Droid.

Previously in an invite-only beta, that means that you can use your Droid, which already captures video at DVD res. But now you can do so through the Qik interface. Also, the new version is easier on your battery, which is always a good thing.

If you were using the beta version, be sure to uninstall it first before installing this one. And peep Qik's demo video after the break. [Qik blog]
