Reading this makes me think of the iPhone commercial about FaceTime. http://youtu.be/EmAIptWS7Mk http://youtu.be/EmAIptWS7Mk
"If you don't have an iPhone, you don't have FaceTime on your phone."
Perhaps it was the marketing department that was not informed of Steve's intentions to open up the FaceTime protocol, or maybe Apple really has changed their position on opening up the protocol.
I really wish they would open up the protocol. It would be very cool. And just think, all these android users would have to get iTunes accounts.

- joshaidan 15y agoTrue, but I wonder if Apple really needs to have a standards body overseeing it. They can still open up the protocol without going through a standards body, which is probably in their best interest. Then third party developers would develop FaceTime apps for Android, etc. But then of course you won't get the seamless user experience.
