5.0 out of 5 stars Entry-level - packed with features, October 13, 2002

The fixed 16 MB, which cannot be upgraded or swapped out, makes this camera suitable for entry-level buyers or those on a budget, but who want a digital camera with a suite of features and software.

It's the features that make this camera such a value - it can function as a webcam/video conferencing camera, a digital camcorder (although you're limited to 3 minutes and 20 seconds of relatively low-resolution 320 x 240 video with voice annotation), and a digital still camera that can take 450 shots at 640 x 480 or 2000 shots at 320 x 240 resolution. It can also serve as a voice recorder that can hold up to 30 minutes of voice only recording.

In addition to the features that are built in, the camera also comes with an up-to-date version of Microsoft NetMeeting, Ulead PhotoExpress 3.0 photo editing software, Ulead Cool 360 panoramic creation software, and Ulead Photo Explorer to manage your photos.

If you are a casual user or primarily want a webcam that can sometimes function as a still camera or camcorder you may not outgrow this device. However, if what you really want is a digital camera, but want to start with a modestly-priced starter camera you'll probably love it. It installs easily and performs to specifications - two of the most important features of any camera in any price range.

I purchased 2 of these for my sons for Christmas, they are not windows XP friendly. I emailed the Tech support with questions and they have not answered my questions after 7 days. I will be returning these.

First, device itself has a bad quality.
pictures- useless, video- worse, voice recorder - I never used it.

You might find out that as a web cam it has pretty good quality compare to other normal web cams, but if you are using Windows XP, this thing goes to junk.

I bought a Dell 700m just a week ago.I was so happy to get one, but than this darn thing keeps freezing my new laptop. I have some friends to talk oversea, so I'm still keeping this junk, but I'm planning to replace it with different web cam. probably a Logitech's. I heard their are good. Anyway i spent 100$ when i bought this, and I absolutely wasted my money!
