I still don't really understand what the big deal is about it. They're touting it as though they've come up with the concept when it's been around for years.
There is no big deal and nothing 'magical'.
Only the bend over and love it crowd seem to think it's brilliant and brand new.
I like to refer to them as the iTwats.
Facetime wearing a burka would seem rather pointless.
It's been on the air for many weeks, at least in Sweden.
People are confused and asking me (knowing I'm a mac geek) how this is different from the 3G video calling that has been around for almost 10 years and works on most phones and all carriers. I can't really give them a good answer.
Am I really the only one not understanding the point of FaceTime?
Free calling. I can talk with my family, who live abroad, for free.
FaceTime isn't really a big deal in the mideast
I don't understand why apple is pushing Facetime so much...... Its situational and most of the time I do not want to see peoples face... most of them are ugly anyways.
90% of the time I'm texting the other 10% I'm using email to communicate with others. the last thing I want to do is get stuck in a facetime call....

It's something that looks cool. That's why.
I bet Apple won't be showing the facetime ads in South Korea, because face2face video talk over CELLULAR signal has been around for a FEW YEARS over there. I even saw someone using the service in an UNDERGROUND subway when I was visiting the place a few months ago.
