Useless if you want to call someone who is NOT currently logged into google. How is this better than skype then? Rubbish.

Who cares?
They should work on what really matters, and that is organizing that fragmented mess of an OS, adding Hardware UI Acceleration so a 1.2GHz dual core phone does not jitter when scrolling a basic list, add multicore support, fix and organize the updates mess...

I hope you can do video calling via 3g data usage as well as wifi this will make video calling more popular.

when apple invented the facetime everybody says.. this technology had been there on their phone.. the point is they don't get whats the actual facetime technology does compared with the operator 3G Video call. Only by this, the fandroids will realize that they only just got this features built-in right into their OS
