I can recommend telyHD for people with HDTVs who want to move their Skype video calling to where whole groups can get into the picture.

At the end of the day, the TelyHD Business Edition is a solid solution for SMBs on a limited budget. Of course, it's not going to cost just $500. For one, most offices will require more than one unit. Also, there is a $199 annual subscription fee that goes into effect after the first year.

The Tely Labs TelyHD is expensive, but it's the best way to video chat with your HDTV if your screen doesn't already support Skype.

TelyHD isn’t a transcendent breakthrough, but it’s fun and affordable. It’s also full of potential.

If Skyping from your computer feels too formal, try it from the couch. And if Mr. Spacely calls, you don’t have to answer.

As TelyHD improves so does the likelihood that more folks will be making video calls in the living room. Seeing will be believing.
