Saw this a few weeks ago, you need to hack your ATV to do this right?

I don't know for sure. Luckily/unluckily for me, all my iTunes got wiped on my PC so it emptied out my Tv. On the guys' site it says that he is working on a tutorial/documentation for installing.

Nice, hoping it doesn't involve hacking, but I have a feeling it does

Interesting.

But I think it's a waste of time. Why would I want to make phone calls from my TV? It's like putting iMovie on an iPod.

...never watched a sci-fi future movie?

I can imagine speaking to somebody from my couch. I'm hoping Apple has iChat video conferencing planned for TV.
