FaceTime is cool and all, but i really don't use it much. it's good for family thats out of town, and friends that are far away, but i don't use it everyday for sure
 
This ad isn't suggesting that FaceTime is new, but it *is* new to a lot of people. I had a girlfriend in Singapore and FaceTime provided a much better chatting experience than Skype, and a more reliable connection. Overall, the experience was much better, even down to simple things like rotating the phone. Skype gets "stuck" in the wrong orientation during the beginning of a call if you rotate, and you need to rotate again to fix it... highly annoying!

When I watch this ad, my only thought is... the future is here, finally. Video calls with anyone, in your pocket. Science fiction stuff becomes reality. Thanks Apple. Thanks Steve.

steve is dead boyz, move on
