AT&T gives in, allows FaceTime over cellular to non Mobile Share customers using LTE phones

Depends on your service area. I know here in Columbus, OH, we don't have LTE and SpeedTest comes back with speeds around 3-5mbps. When I was up in the Akron-Cleveland area where there is LTE, I got speeds upward of 20-25mbps. FaceTime looks great there.

Basically, if you have any plan other than the Unlimited plan, you can use FaceTime. AT&T wants you to pay for using more data. They also want to limit Unlimited Data users to get them to switch. I'm wondering what will happen when the iOS 6 jailbreak comes out and you can trick the iPhone into thinking it's on wifi.

I don't know about how likely you may get your unlimited plan back, but I wouldn't expect you can. Depends on your persistence.

As for returning to your old plan, if it's still offered (i.e., not grandfathered) you can return to it. AT&T allows you to switch between Mobile Share and its traditional plans.
