Will We Be Able To Video Chat Without Front Facing Cameras?
 
I know when Skype came for the iPhone 3gs they were able to do it without a front cam has it been confirmed if wp7 will be the same?

possibly but the carriers would rather prefer to get more of our money by charging us for an upgrade and then make us sign another contract for a phone with a FFC.

I really have to ask, Why bother ? If your only going to be making a voice call, why not just call them ?

I just like others will be buying a new phone with a FC (I wont buy a new phone unless it has one, as it's an expected feature on my next phone)

you have to remember not everyone has

1) unlimited long distance (but have access to WiFi/3G)
2) are calling people in the same country, I can use this to speak with my family phone to phone in another country and not pay high long distance costs.
