Facetime HD Has Arrived

Would you look at that! Facetime got 2 new features today:
– HD (High Definition)
– a price tag of 0.99 cents (app store link)

The HD feature is going to require you have an HD camera (such as on the new Macbook Pros that came out on Feb 24, 2011).

The additional cost for Facetime is said to be part of an accounting issue (thank you sarbanes oxley) more than Apple’s desire to squeeze you for ten of your hard-earned dimes.
