Terrible picture, don't worth a penny.......2007-05-25

Terrible pictures. Don't buy it if you don't want to be like a prisoner. It is not worth a penny!!! You will regret if you buy this product.

I like the Live Ultra webcam though. Bought it during Thanksgiving!

Good mount for notebook screens, horrible picture.......2007-04-26

I got one of these since it was mac compatible with 3rd party drivers (check out macam). It worked on the mac, but had horrible picture quality on both mac and PC. It's just a cheap older-generation device with very grainy and washed out low-light performance.

I bought an Philips SPC900NC for the mac, much better due to the CCD (instead of the CMOS sensor in the Creative webcam).

I've tried to contact Creative for a few support requests, even about using this on a normal PC. They're very unresponsive and unhelpful, and the drivers are sometimes buggy (need a reboot to get the cam to work when it was working fine before). I'll be buying a different company's product next time, simply due to support.

Not Mac Compatible, but pretty cool little gadget.......2007-02-25

Note this WILL NOT WORK WITH A MAC -- but it's a tidy little webcam with its own carrying case and despite Amazon's attempts to get you to buy an additional microphone, it comes with one included. Have communicated with persons using one on their laptops and video is pretty decent.

The video is VERY fuzzy. And after rebooting, it no longer transmitted a signal. Have to disconnect and then reconnect it to get it to work each time. Tech support was not able to help during the free-tech support period. I recommend trying a competitor's webcam.

Great for its value.......2007-01-10

I was surprise as to how small the web cam is but I like that because it's easily portable. If you get enough lighting, the image is clear. I just wished the camera rotates left to right instead of just up and down. But I would recommend this product; great for its value.
