Perfect

2008-06-28
This is small, works great, came amazingly fast and does everything I want it to do! I am a college student and consequencially I am frugal. This product was half the price of what I saw it going for in local stores, thank goodness for Amazon.com!
I recommend this product for anyone who wants great quality, something mobile and who does not want to spend too much money.

Very Good Cam

2008-06-22
After reading some other poor reviews I was very doubtful about buying this web cam. I still bought it though as it was affordable. I am gald I did. This is the clearest i've ever seen and I've received compliments from users on both ends of the chat window. I'm not too impressed with the software though. Up to now I can't get my face to fully calibrate into one of the effects images. It works well without installing the software and, for the record, it works although the software CD "warns" you not to plug in the Cam before installing the software.

Product Requires Software Upgrade

2008-06-09
The software that comes with the product does not work properly with Windows XP. You get a blue screen, and need to download the latest upgrade to run properly. Manufacturer aware of problem, but of course customer has to find the issue.

Good camera although pricey.

This is a perfectly serviceable camera, comes with a great case, good portable camera to take with if you use a computer lab or the like. The only drawback is the system bogging, reminder laden software required to use the camera. Otherwise, it is a great unit, slightly over priced, which makes it a four star review.

Not for Windows Vista

2007-12-25
I bought this for my daughter who has a laptop with Windows Vista as the operating software. According to the page online this webcam is compatible with WIndows Vista, but when we got the product it said it was only for WIndows Xp, and not for Windows Vista. It was quite upseting for the whole family. My daughter was looking forward to webcamming with her big sister who lives in the United States. Because we are posted overseas it takes a long time for things to ship here, so we could not get a quick replacement. Our oldest daughter was unable to spend Christmas with us this year and everyone was looking forward to webcamming with her.

The Logitech QuickCam for Notebooks Pro includes a crush-resistant carrying case, headset, flat panel clip (for monitors 6 mm to 16 mm in width), and a software CD.

Poor clip design

2007-11-24
Would you by a great car with square tires? I was excited to upgrade from the previous version of this camera so that I could remove the velcro from my laptop. Unfortunately, the challenge of creating a clip which will work on Dell's round-edged inspiron has once again evaded Logitech. The velcro remains.

Works with Ubutu 7.10

2007-10-21
I bought a Dell 1420N with Ubuntu 7.04 installed and pluged this cam in hoping it would work right out of the box as many things seem to do in Ubuntu but it didn't. Then Ubuntu issued their recent update to 7.10 which must of incorporated v4l2 in the kernel. After I updated it worked. I've set it up with Ekiga the video phone that comes with the Dell Ubuntu's default installation. The Dell Ubuntu computer is Great but I wish Logitech would not make it so hard to use there products. Of course I found this out after I bought it.
