In your situation --- a Mac here in the states, and one in China with you --- I'd get modern Macs that can do iChat AV. An iMac here and a MacBook there. Both will have the camera built in; you just hook them both up to a fast Internet connection and agree ahead of time approximately what time(s) of the day you'll all be online.
