Use skype (w/ video) on android.
I fully expect Microsoft to drop Skype support for Linux .. or atleast give a seriously stunted binary to get around anti-trust, that I am using Android as my full-on communication tool, including video conferencing.
I see skype-video on the S5PV210 Samsung chipset android tablets already (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SfwI1c93KqA). Atleast in Asia, you can get resistive 8 inchers with Gingerbread for sub-$200.
also, unity so far has been a disaster... I know about 5 friends who still use ubuntu, they couldn't use it with unity, and I helped them to get old gnome back. Hopefully unity will gets better, but this change I think was too big and wasn't optional. I think they lost a lot of users because of it.
But I still use ubuntu on some servers of mine.
