Hey, a really good tongue-twister is often hard to come by!

Granted, the title of the blog should really read AT&T Cell-to-Cell Sells Cells?… or will the new AT&T cell-to-cell service actually sell any mobile phones?

I think it has a pretty good chance.

While this service won’t work with the iPhone (even though it is brought to us by the same local American network that is debuting the iPhone, contrary to Engadget’s take), you have to suspect that it could achieve some level of success.

Ok, let me take a step back.

The cell-to-cell service will allow users to conduct a live video conversation with someone else using a cellular connection to converse cell to cell. Both sides must have enabled phones and both sides must have access to the 3G network. To limit the market further, the camera will have to be screen-side. It would be really annoying if the camera were to be found on the flip side of the phone.

Of course, this will get even more interesting once it’s connected to the computer and television. I’m looking forward to another source of interruption while I watch the Mets blow another one…
