Two is definitely better than one.

Ok, I like the ad but I call fowl on Facetime being in the ad.

AT&T does not allow Facetime on its network. It's total BS to show it in an ad that's about their network and to make it worse they show Facetime immediately before lowering the phone to show the AT&T logo behind the phone.

That's not cool at all. I pretty much consider that part of the ad a lie. I mean, how else are you supposed to interpret that other than to think AT&T has Facetime? They don't.

(And I'm only giving Verizon a pass here because they haven't announced yet if they'll allow Facetime. This will also apply to that half of the ad if they end up saying they don't support it.)

I'd be surprised if Verizon allows facetime over their network at launch, since Facetime is more reliant on network speed than coverage or reliability. That being said I agree the ad is misleading.

Wait, Verizon doesn't allow facetime over 3G either though?

They haven't said. We're assuming they won't, but since they haven't confirmed all the details I don't want to complain about them too much yet.

They should show what happens when a call comes in.

It's the internet. Why wait for something as trifling as facts or details? Rant away! ;)
