Skype has struck a deal with LG and Panasonic that will allow users to call other Skype users or phones via their televisions. Internet-enabled TVs coming in mid-2010 from both LG and Panasonic will support Skype service and all the user needs is an HD webcam. Skype on HDTV will support Skype-to-Skype free video calling, lower call rates to landlines and mobiles, voice conference calls, accept incoming calls via a user’s online Skype number and more.

PC users will also be able to enjoy 720p video calls but will need a newer version of Skype and HD webcam.
