The only reason I even chose this webcam was that it was available as a prize on Live Search Club. I needed a new webcam, so I snatched one of these. The product came in a nice package and looked very nice.
However, the camera is not good for video. It can only record at a 640x480 resolution, and the picture quality is very low. Also, there's no timer for taking still images, so your only option if you want a far-off/hands-off photograph is to have someone else push the button... or cut a frame from a video recording.
Images are decent, never amazing, and the videos are usually out-of-sync, especially when uploaded to YouTube. The webcam has a very annoying button on its top that loads Windows Messenger to send chat invites. It is very easy to push that button accidentally.
I do not recommend this. For the record, it is no longer available on LSC, but I would never have bought this product for $60. At that price, you're better off getting a cheap ($50) camcorder from Wal-Mart.

Works okay in Yahoo messenger. Works even better in Windows Live. Great video call capability. I own 2 of these and would recommend them to anyone looking for a webcam.
