At home Ruth is away a fair amount and I've found it nice for the kids to talk to Ruth via skype.
Its a bit of a faf to set up but the kids feel more connected to her when she can read to them and they can see her.
So my specks for the SkypeRobot
It would be a mobile camera/screen which could be controlled remotely by the remote user ( I got lots of great comments about 'can you bring mummy in here').
The remote user should be able to move the camera/screen too.
I guess the whole thing should be fairly robust and without keyboards but just a 'call' button for the kids....
As plug and play as possible - all you need is wifi and a power point.
