Messenger 2.0 [<a href="http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/yahoo-messenger/id309219097?mt=8" target="_blank">link</a>] to call not only another iPhone 4, but your home computer, be it a Mac or a PC. And you don't have to be on Wi-Fi to use it, as Yahoo! has enabled it for 3G calling as well. Obviously they recommend you use it on Wi-Fi but in a pinch, fire it up on 3G. iChat, are you next?</p>
