My wife's family is pretty far away, and with a couple of small children around, we thought it would be nice for the grandparents to be able to see the kids occasionally.

Pros Easy To Use

Pros Simple Setup, Easy To Use
Cons None submitted
Recommended it? Yes

This webcam turned out to be a lot better than the built-in one our laptop that had previously died. Our family reported a much better piture quality!  It was very easy to use - just plugged it right in and it worked.  Sometimes it does fall down easily if bumped. Read full review »
