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."
