So another Apple product I've found wanting is FaceTime.
On several occasions I've gone around there bend trying to get it to work with a colleague on his laptop. The way that it's assigned to a phone number / Apple account / desktop has lead to issues connecting, forcing me to suggest that we flip over to Skype.
Now it looks like Google has it figured out, for mobile anyway.
