Rumor Mill: AT&T to charge for Apple FaceTime over cellular
http://j.mp/OPhsyK (Fierce Wireless)
"AT&T Mobility (NYSE:T) may charge customers for using Apple's
(NASDAQ:AAPL) FaceTime video calling feature over cellular connections
on iOS 6 devices, according to a 9to5Mac report. Apple announced
recently that iOS users will be able to make FaceTime calls over
cellular networks. The blog posted an error message that appeared
using iOS 6 beta 3 software that asks users to contact AT&T to enable
FaceTime over cellular, which could be an indication that AT&T plans
to charge for the service. Up until now all FaceTime calls have been
made over Wi-Fi connections, but Apple enabled the feature to run over
cellular data networks for iOS 6, which will be launched later this
fall."
