FaceTime over 3G with iOS 6

[FFAP1234]

Does anybody know how much date takes FaceTime over 3G? I don't see any posting about it. What is going to happen to my unlimited ( 3GB ) data plan? I am a heavy user of FaceTime and I think the 3G option is great!

Not sure how much data, but it does work over 3G which is fantastic!

I'm sure FaceTime will look lovely over a throttled 3G connection

It uses about 3 MB per minute.

I used Facetime over 3G, and it works quite well actually.

On the other hand, now that I am on OS 6.0 beta I no longer have the "sorry I am on 3G" excuse to get out of a FaceTime call. Dang! lol

It may not remain a free feature. AT&T seems interested in charging.

Hmm, additional $20/month perhaps? And will that mean unlimited FaceTime if you cough up the $20 just for that? Or maybe this is just a nasty rumor and AT&T will allow us to use or data allowance any way we want, including FaceTime?

Hmm...

You're lucky I read your posts, I nearly merged the threads...
