Ask Engadget: best way to get Skype on my HDTV?

We know you've got questions, and if you're brave enough to ask the world for answers, then here's the outlet to do so. This week's Ask Engadget inquiry is from Brian, who wants to video-chat in his living room without having to buy a whole new HDTV. If you're looking to ask one of your own, drop us a line at ask [at] engadget [dawt] com.

"Hi Engadget, love the site! I'm looking to get Skype functionality onto my HDTV. What's the best standalone device with a camera and microphone that I can use without having to go out and buy a camera-enabled smart TV? Thanks!"

Well Brian, there are some options, but as far as we know, the market's not particularly wide-ranging. For instance, the only two models that spring instantly to our mind is Logitech's TV Cam HD and Tely Labs telyHD. At least, those are our suggestions. Now it's time to turn this question over to the readers and let them suggest items to you that they've used, loved and would recommend to a friend. So have at it!
