1 out of 5 stars Don't be fooled - Needs drivers   September 13, 2008
And once the drivers are installed and the camera is running the resolution is not at all impressive.

30 days after you install the drivers a window pops up reminding you to register the product, even if you *did* already register it. Window will not go away and pops up every time you start the computer. Requires disabling some registry entries to make it go away.

You get what you pay for.



5 out of 5 stars Great   July 20, 2008
I bought this product for my grandson and it arrived in a timely fashion and worked great; he has communicated with this father, who is in Korea, and it worked wonderfully!!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent Camera, great features for the $   March 27, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This is the best camera in this price range I've used.
It has good resolution and light control. It's truly plug and play.

I did install the creative software because it has some good tools including motion activated alerts for monitoring and face tracking technology.

It also comes with a head set that has the same earphone distributed with the Zen product line. The microphone quality is much better than I expected. It has good noise cancellation control and is very clear.

The video capture and editing works well also.

It worked seamlessly with Skype, MSN and Yahoo for video chats also.



4 out of 5 stars Awesome   December 25, 2007
I got this webcam for my 14 year old daughter for Christmas to use on Bebo. She say's it is awesome and she is really having lot's of fun with the special affects. I would highly recommend this product.
Setup took a while but no glitches.




5 out of 5 stars this webcam is easy and has great quality!   November 20, 2007
I was very happy with this creative webcam. It works very well with my windows xp. Very easy to manipulate. The photo manager it came with is pretty neat too. I use it instead of regular windows explorer viewing.
