Does anyone know how to use these cameras in msn or yahoo messenger?
Any comment is appreciated.

Never used it in messanger... but the camera sucks bad... really bad. It works ok in sunlight. Here's a pic in a nicely lit room (4 60watt bulbs right above me).


Me taking a picture of the screen with the web cam taking a picture of me taking a picture of the screen And, yes, that IS how it looks.

I've found that through the utility that came with it you can clean the image up a bit, but it is still not all that impresive. I've used it in Aim. My roomate is paranoid that the computer is watching though.

Now if I could only get the built in mic to work, I get no sound whatsoever.

i've found that if, in the options, you set "no flicker" to off, you can use the camera with significantly less light.

it still sucks though.

my camera isnt so bad, but i can't get it to work with anything...for example in AIM when configing, it says "The camera you selected is not working properly, or may be in use by another program. Please click back to try again or select a different camera"
i've gotten this in all other programs as well
