Anyone done video conferencing with iChat AV?
Holy cow! It's awesome!

Granted, it sucks on this computer (350Mhz G3 - I had to patch iChat to enable video at all), but it's still cool being able to talk with and see jerky video of someone halfway accross the country. And I've seen some demos... wow. If you have fast computer and a fast connection it's like freakin star trek.

If anyone wants to pop in to say hello let me know and I'll plug in my cam

1. iSight on an 800mhz G3 iBook did fine.
Was working through an 802.11b wireless connection as well. Video was smoother that other webcams I've seen, and the microphone performed excellently. iBook speakers were too weak (remote person was alone, but at my end we had 6 people listening in) so I plugged in a spare set of cheapo PC speakers and it was fine.

Very impressed with the iSight and iChatAV.
