Seems that it does the same thing - with faster connections you can add video but audio only is fine as well.

Post #193,696 by SpiceWare 2/8/05 4:39:12 PM Reply	couple reasons 1) Parents wanted something that could call real phones, the rates from Mexico to the states are outrageous 2) iChat's audio only mode doesn't work PC-2-Mac, only Mac-2-Mac.
