Not a bad cam. Not excellent, just good.

This webcam is nothing great. It does the job as advertised. The frame rates are acceptable and it works with XP and Vista just fine. All the major IM clients see it and can use it.
Can't beat the price though. Picture quality is OK, not great, but not bad either. For video quality comparison: Better than YouTube Video quality but not by much.

This cam works great for what i use it for. Works nice for yahoo and i use it everyday for my girlfriend. This cam was worth the buy.
Decently priced cam --- but there are better ones.

This web cam doesn't have a built-in mic. You'll need an external microphone in order to transmit sound, so if you already have a mic, this cam will work just fine for you... There are cams with built-in mics now. I just wanted a cheap webcam. A built-in mic would have been nice as it would have reduced the need to plug in another USB cord. The video quality is adequate -- but my mother's $90 "face-tracking" logitech cam is 10Xs better.
Still, if you're looking for a cheap cam, this is a good choice.
sound or no sound

Ok - I'm not too bad at getting these things to work - however this is my third webcam (with a microphone) and nobody can hear me - so I took Creative off my computer and bought a logitech from Walmart which does work and which does give sound. To be fair, there is a learning curve - I had upgraded my computer to Vista which may be part of the problem - if you have this camera, go to the uninstall in your computer and check to see if there is anything else similar to a microphone - if so, be sure to disable it. The Creative cam offers the web cam with intermittent record, motion activated record, and other nice features my logitech does not offer and I miss those features - however, since my primary use is instant messaging with grandchildren, I bought the logitech. Good luck - the pictures on both these web cams is excellent - better than any other I've seen. The price was affordable on both cams - I'll be keeping both for the Creative remote features, etc. and the logitech for sound. Yes, I guess I'd recommend Creative with reservations.....some reservations depend on how determined and/or technically challenged the user might be.
