Logitech is about to drop its TV Cam HD later this month.

The $199.99 device hooks up to your TV to run Skype and transmit wide-angle, 720p footage of your couch over WiFi or Ethernet.  Unlike the previous TV Cam, there’s no need for a Viera Connect HDTV — anything with HDMI-in will do. The company is banking on the notion that families will forgo the use of their existing mobile devices and laptops in favor of an always-on dedicated system with incoming call alerts, four noise-cancelling mics and a Carl Zeiss lens that “gets the whole family in the video call, so everyone from grandparents to grandchildren can move around naturally.”

Check it out below pretty damn cool if we say so ourselves.
