With the release of Mac OS 10.4.9, UVC (USB Video Class) webcams will work with iChat. Here's part of a Logitech support document listing a few that will work:
This article applies to the following operating systems: Macintosh OS 10.4.9This article refers to the following Logitech products: All UVC Complaint Webcams
The Logitech webcams listed below are UVC (Universal Video Class) compliant and can be used with operating systems which fully support this standard; including Mac OS 10.4.9. Please note that standard UVC drivers are provided by the Operating System and will provide minimal camera support only. Unique Logitech features, such as RightLight and Video Effects are not functional via UVC drivers. Furthermore, we recommend the use of a full Logitech installation package, where available, for supported operating systems such as Windows XP and Windows Vista.

Update (6/5/07): I just bought a Logitech QuickCam Ultra Vision SE and it works immediately with iChat, including the audio. Nice. :-)
Craig I am curious, do you mean you can hear the audio or the mic works too. I have this camera and the picture is fine but there is no mic available.

Any ideas for software?
