Tested Skype on equiso with two different Logitech web cams and no luck. 2nd calling device was a iPad. It displays video from iPad but not the webcams.

Good find!
Take aways from the quick read is try the following:
Try installing the Google ICS Voice Search

Try powering USB Webcam with USB Powered Hub (I've been using a non-powered hub).

I've done a quick test with my logitech quickcam pro 9000 connected on a powered USB hub and the video was working but no sound.

I have to do more tests...
