I have AT&T also just called them yes to use Facetime on there network you need the mobile share program but if you have wifi in your home like I do and I am always on my wifi 95% the facetime will work on Wifi I am thinking of doing this in Feb because I will have 3 iphone devices on the acct and the price that I quoted will be about 20.00 less then I estamated I would be paying for 3 iphones if I keep the plan I have now and add another separate internet on the 3rd iphone it will be close to 200.00 😉
