FIBS, iChat & iSight

[jasonj]

Just curious to know how many people out there are using Apple's iSight cameras and iChat... and/or if there are people out there interested in playing BG and actually being able to see and talk to their opponent...

I'm not convinced that I'm in love with the idea... but the technology is new enough that I'm willing to try it out if there are others that have similar set-ups.

I've seen the Isight camera, think its cool and would buy one if it worked with a PC.

Maybe - but definately not when playing resh

NIHI - the iSight camera will work with PCs (you need a firewire port, and you'll need a separate microphone - the internal microphone does not work with PCs).

But the AOL instant messenger (which works with Apple's iSight camera and others for video conferencing) supports a number of cameras...

So even if you have a different camera/mic set up, if you use AIM, the possibility exists to video chat and play...
