FaceTime Over 3G Comes to Jailbroken iPhone 4s
Apple's 'Surprise and Shine' iPhone Event: Follow along
with our live blog.
Hot on the heels of this weekend's release of the JailbreakMe Web-based jailbreak tool for iOS devices, users with jailbroken iPhone 4s can now think about installing My3G from Intelliborn, which was just updated to enable FaceTime video calling over 3G connections.
My3G essentially tricks a user's phone into thinking it is on Wi-Fi instead of 3G, allowing users to access a number of features and types of content typically restricted to Wi-Fi connections. My3G is typically available to jailbroken iPhones via Rock Your iPhone for $3.99, but the site is currently down due to the high traffic load.
9 to 5 Mac has posted a video briefly showing off FaceTime over 3G in action.
