If neither of you are behind a firewall, good ol' Netmeeting gives pretty large resolution compared to some of the other applications. But even a weak firewall will render it useless.

If one or both people are behind a firewall that they can't change (i.e. university network, etc.) then iVisit works very well.
Eyeball Chat is good as well although I haven't had much experience with it.
I try to stay away from the messenger programs because they give such small pictures.

My gf and I are currently 6 hours from each other at different colleges and I don't know what we'd do without webcams :-)
