AT&T's Next Ridiculous Move Is Going To Outrage iPhone Users

The change will take place once Apple's new mobile operating system, iOS 6, launches for iPhones and iPads this fall. Only the iPhone 4S and third generation ("new") iPad will be able to use FaceTime over cellular networks. (The next iPhone, which will likely launch around the same time as iOS 6, should be able to make FaceTime calls over cellular too.)

Here's the statement AT&T gave us regarding charging extra for FaceTime over cellular. We're pretty confident it's going to happen based on this:

We’re working closely with Apple on the new developer build of iOS 6 and we’ll share more information with our customers as it becomes available.

Again, we have example of carriers nickel and diming you for data you already own. Right now AT&T charges $30 per month for 3 GB of data. That's data you bought. With your money. Just like you buy candy or books or video games or gasoline.
