i don't use bootcamp so i can't answer the first few, but there is a built in mic, and ichat only runs on mac os x but u can have video chats with people with PC's that have a video camera.

BootCamp 1.2 says it has upgraded support for the iSight so I would assume it does work

iChat is a OS X only program. It connects to AIM so you can talk and vid conference with anybody who has AIM.

The camera does work in Skype and aMSN

I use iChat to IM a friend who uses ICQ on windows. Also, I've read that Google Talk works with iChat when configured properly? I've only used the built-in mic with GarageBand thus far, but it works pretty well.
