same here - I just wish skype (with webcams) was better supported.

For a lot of people (and businesses), that is a blocker. I managed to get a UVC webcam, but still had to get a PPA v4l repository and build some drivers.

I think it is good that ipods will be supported out-of-the-box in Lucid (Rhythmbox). The same should happen for Skype.

On that front, one should get rid of all the useless games and instead have : 1. a nice Twitter app 2.Scrivener-like app

These are killer apps for a lot of people who use a Mac - especially the young student demographic.

How long ago was this? uvcvideo was merged into mainline quite a while back, so almost all [recent] webcams should work pretty well now.
