Only a quick one as I wanted to share my thoughts on FaceTime.

OK, so everybody did it the first day they got their iPhone 4 and so did I. You FaceTime the person you just got back from the store with! Over the next few days, you find everyone you know who has an iPhone 4 and even if you’re on the same WiFi network – You call each other to test it. It’s great fun!

Then you think it ends… It’s a fad that’ll pass and something fun to use, once in a while at best.

OK, this is kinda extreme!

This weekend, I got to use FaceTIme a lot and I have to say, I love it. My better half was in Spain for the weekend and spent a while figuring out the cheapest way to keep in touch, bearing in mind the roaming charges.

Luckily, the hotel she was staying in had free WiFi. We spoke over FaceTime I think four times in total and every time had a different meaning and a different reason. Apart from the stuff I’m not gonna bore you with, the best experience was when speaking to a couple of people at the same time. Imagine trying to do that talking on the phone… It wouldn’t happen!

The greatest thing that happened was on Sunday night… The World Cup final was interrupted whilst I jumped on FaceTime to say hello, whilst talking I heard something in the distant… I remembered that Soraya was in Spain… Watching Spain in the World Cup Final. She held the phone out and I could hear chanting and chearing!

In the end, it was great seeing each other, even though we were in different countries! Yes you’ve gotta be in WiFi but the quality was perfect! I understand why you have to be in WiFi and it’s fine! Try it, spend some time apart and get on FaceTime… I’m intrigued to see where this goes.

Remember what Steve said… “Apple will ship 10′s of Millions of Face Time devices in 2010″ – Why say devices if you just meant iPhones…?
