Video calls between 3G phones have been available in the UK for some
years.  I've only ever made two using one of these to real people, both
across a table in a pub to show them what it looked like; I have made
goodness knows how many to an IVR while trying to pick 3G-324M apart.

However, there are some instances where they're very useful.  For
example, my family is geographically quite dispersed, and we use Skype
with video a lot - particularly for grandparents to keep up with
grandchildren.  The usefulness and appropriateness of video calling
depends very much on the target market; it's not, of itself, a bad
thing.
