Hey Ross - thanks for the comment. Yeah, we hit a bit of a double whammy here in that our iPhone 4 doesn't work on the Canadian wireless network (yet), and none of the rest of the team in the US has been able to get hands onto an iPhone 4 (yet). But we'll add in the appropriate video as soon as we're able to get it running on this side of 49!
And yeah, the ultrasound video makes me wonder doubly, because not only are you not likely to get access to the clinic's WiFi, but aren't you supposed to refrain from making phone calls when you're in medical clinics anyhow? Heh.

Sean, I would have hoped to have seen a FaceTime video that you did yourself. The photos they have on Apple's website are just to nice to believe!
The lady getting an ultrasound and able to receive a wi-fi signal is also hard to believe.
Why not just use Skype to Skype calls since they are free until the end of 2010?
Now only need to wait until Apple decides to send the iPhone to Canada.
