I am sure that it must have been done already(???), but what about video chat tied in with a game like scrabble, bridge or, I suppose, poker. Social games that folks like to play while chatting with their friends - the game not really being the point of the interaction.

So, do you folks think this would work on the Tablets? Four people playing scrabble together and being able to see and talk to each other at the same time?

Granny is in a home but can still join the family after dinner at night for a game of bridge.

Same thing with kids games.
