Cisco umi with 720p HD resolution
I bought the Umi from the Cisco home store and it has surpassed my expectation. I was able to talk to family in switzerland and UK in no time. Now I don't have to work through a difficult user interface to do a video call. Now a video call is as simple as making a phone call. Since umi integrates with the TV and existing cable set top box, switching to a call and then back to TV is very simple and seamless.My sister's Playstation 3 broke down and we plan on using it for Televideo between us using the PS3 Move system. I thought it would be a better idea to buy her the Cisco Umi system to avoid paying the PS3 repair fee... but it turns out it is cheaper to buy a whole new Playstation 3 with Move or an XBox 360 with Kinect and use these for Televideo! I still do not get it... how do they plan on selling the Umi system when it is more expensive than the competition, and the competition offers videogames on top of that! I know the Umi has more features, and is more reliable, but these features are not needed when you just want to talk and see your sister on the other side of your TV!
