Admittedly I'm only using MSN/Skype/etc on a computer and it all started with grandparents watching a baby/toddler on the other side of the world, but I have also used it with my friends that I rarely see in real life since we are all modern nomads.
It's not going to replace normal phone call, though (at least not for me). My mobile phone doesn't have the second camera and I don't care. Webcam into the room or on top of my netbook is convenient and I can certainly see someone setting up a videoconferencing configuration in their kitchen in the near future. Maybe then it becomes interesting to video-call in from a mobile, but I personally don't see myself running around with my mobile phone held up in front of me.
