FWIW I recently discovered Open Sans, which has the same nice hinting, relative lightness, and pleasant rounded glyphs as Calibri — but you can embed everywhere with no legal repercussions: http://www.google.com/webfonts/specimen/Open+Sans
Thanks, it looks interesting, but unless I'm missing something (as I use to do), it resembles Arial as regards to the size of letters. It lacks the certain crowdedness of Arial, and it might be very suitable for many purposes, but it does not look like a good fallback for Calibri - it looks considerably bigger than Calibri of the same size.
It also lacks many commonly needed special characters, like arrows and the minus sign.
But maybe there's some other freely embeddable font that sufficiently resembles Calibri?
