if its a good cam, then its a good cam to use with video messaging. logitech makes good stuff. i have a 100 logitech orbit ornament on my desk, nice cam. when i used to use it, it was a really good cam, good definition. plus you can rotate it through software so when i remote desktop into my pc from work i can rotate the cam around my room and monitor it.

You don't use it anymore? How difficult is it to remote link it from your work? I liek that feature I can check in with my nephew and stuff. |

i use windows remote desktop, it allows you to connect romotely to pc's running xp. then i just open my cam like i was sitting in front of my computer, its a little slower though but it works. if you have xp its under start-all programs-accessories-communications-remote desktop connection. you can also run it on any OS and control an xp machine, say if your pc at work was 2k or 98 you can download the remote desktop protocol and connect to your xp home machine.
