at about 9:30 tonight, Mom casually mentions that she's got something else in her bag. "what?" "oh, that camera computer thingy" "whaa? the isight?!?!"
jeez...i had it hooked up in a jiffy you betcha! now brother Thomas and i can talk live..and...SEE each other via video chat! this thing is sooo damn cool. sister Margaret (who by the way has pics of her new London flat on that blog link) just has to get one and we will be one mad, audio/video chatting family. without international phone bills.
p.s. i can live audio chat/one way video chat with anyone else who has Apple ichat AV whether or not you have a camera (mic required for audio though). make sure i have your buddy names!
