ViaTV Phone works with a TV and a plain old Touch-Tone telephone line to let you communicate visually without using a computer. The $499 unit, which contains a video-processing chip, video camera, and modem, attaches to your phone and TV. You use the phone to call another ViaTV Phone (or other H.324 system), pr
ess a button, and begin a two-way video conversation. The current version supports U.S. phones. The company plans support for other countries this summer.
