Thanks. I do expect video calls between two N800s to work just fine, what concerns me is the nature of the protocol used. If we look at Apple's iChat, it uses the AIM and Jabber protocols but implements its own protocol for streaming video, so you need to use Macs on both ends to use it.

Guess I'll find out tomorrow when I get my N800 (provided the FedEx guys deliver on time, touch wood)
