O.k. I haven't got a top ten per-say, but I'd like to encourage some users to give their Google Talk Video Chat a good chance, and play a little with it. It's not so bad at all.

This might be just 'pure user' thoughts, but in the home environment it can be very helpful as a video 'intercom' of sorts.

My wife is pregnant and due within six weeks. So, she is in bed a lot these days. I keep a few horses and we have found this to be quite FUN to 'check in' when I am out at the barn doing tidyup and chores. I suspect this may make things also easier when baby has arrived and wifey is feeding and I am not so close as to simply be called out loud through a couple of floors or across the driveway to the barn.

With the N800, I like that the camera can be rotated to have the view away from the user and towards 'a child' or the pet or another friend. My connection is medium high speed and I am basically happy with the image feed.

O.k., in that baby consideration as well, I just installed all the key baby cd's of melodic lullabies etc on my wife's N800 for her to have at her fingertips 'when needed' (yes,yes mine will have them too!)

Just a couple of practical uses I felt moved to share that I am finding meaningful.
