Webcams- which ones are easy to use, not too much $$$

[LeftyMom]

From the reviews I've looked at, it looks like logitech makes the best ones? Are there any others anybody'd recommend? I'm looking for a decent deal since I'm buying two.

5. I got a Phillips basic webcam for Christmas.

I think it was about sixty bucks. It's very, very easy to set up and use, and it has a built in microphone. Way better than a phonecall!

6. I went through 3 in the past month

I tried a Logitech QuckCam COmmunicate STX and it wasn't all that great, slow video rate, then tried a Creative Labs Live! Cam Video IM Pro Web Cam, same thing, finally got a Microsoft - LifeCam Web Camera VX-3000 and it works exactly as I would hope a webcam for $50 would work.

I had an old, very old webcam from Intel that had no frills and was excellent, but opted to get a new one with the new computer this year. Also I handed off the old computer to my son, and he uses it with his girlfriend...NO, not like that! :rofl: They are 14 and he HAS to have the door to his room open at all times!
