Very Good camera June 20, 2008
V. Patil
I like this webcam; it arrived the next day I ordered and installation was very easy. Within 15 minutes I able to get on Skype. If you use Skype then this is best camera.

I am giving one star less because from item description I got assumption that I am getting two mics one inbuilt into camera and another in the headphone included. However there was no inbuilt mic.

Headphone is good enough for conversations; not meant for music.

Creative Webcam Instant - Skype Edition April 14, 2008

I have had this webcam for a few years now, and it has been fine. The picture quality isn't great, and the focus is difficult, but once you have it set, you can just leave it. It does come with lots of software, though, that slows your PC down, and, unfortunately, they are essential. However, it serves it's purpose fine for Windows Live/MSN Messenger and Skype.

I have now used this webcam for over a year. It is an excellent item. Very clear pictures and works beautifully with Skype.

Perfect for Skype - love it January 2, 2008

If like me you are looking for an inexpensive webcam to use primarily for Skype, this is just the ticket. Extremely straightforward to get started and use - install the software, plug in with USB cable, open Skype, ta-daaa.
I've since bought my parents one and they then bought my brother one, so safe to say we are all fans of this model. And so cheap!
Enjoy!

Good, but not with Vista!! January 2, 2008

Like a previous reviewer I bought this webcam for use on an old PC with XP. With my recent upgrade to Vista, I was upset to realise that neither Creative nor Vista plan to come up with any software to allow me to use this.... It's a shame, because this was a great webcam :(
