You can FaceTime to an iPhone, iPod, or Mac that also has FaceTime.
 
Regarding iChat:

There is no "iChat" application on the iPad yet, but you can use the free "AIM" app or other instant messenger apps to chat with iChat buddies from the iPad. Currently I am liking the "imo" messenger the best.
 
Thank you !! you guys are great! I love being able to see and chat with the loved ones.
 
Just keep in mind that for a stock iPad 2, you'll need wifi access to Facetime while on the go...
