ditto here. the webcam quality is poor but that is just the webcam hardware itself it seems. I have been doing video calls through my asterisk box with my n810 to a pc in office running counterpath bria since the n810 came out.

The problem with yahoo and other proprietary voice and video chat systems is the proliferation of so many different codecs. Even windows users have lots of problems with codec issues. Running n810 or linux or windows, I have no problem as long as I stick to h263 or h264 for videoconferencing.
