A universal attachment base fits on most monitors, including flat screens.

The Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 is optimized for Windows Live Messenger, which is used by the largest worldwide instant messenger community with over 200 million users. Three key features give you a superior Windows Live Experience. First, the Windows Live Call Button makes it easy to start a video call. Simply press the button to see who's online, and you're on your way to a video call. Second, with the LifeCam Dashboard you can access video effects and control your webcam from the Windows Live Messenger window. Lastly, with One-Touch Blogging, a single click allows you to upload to Windows Live Spaces, an "online scrapbook" that lets you easily post blogs, photo albums, and personal music lists.

The VX-3000's automatic face tracking software, which takes advantage of the camera's pan, tilt, and zoom controls, follows you so you don't disappear off-screen. Meanwhile, the camera automatically adjusts for low-light conditions for improved video quality, and a built-in unidirectional microphone with acoustic noise cancellation provides crystal-clear audio. Video effects give you a fun way to express yourself, and last but not least, the camera's universal attachment base fits on most monitors, including flat screens. Alternatively, the camera can sit directly on your desk.

Note that while the VX-3000 is optimized for use with Windows Live Messenger, Microsoft LifeCams also work with other instant messaging programs, such as Yahoo Messenger and AOL Instant Messenger.

If you want the next level of performance from your LifeCam, consider the Microsoft LifeCam VX-6000, which adds high definition video capabilities, a wide angle lens, a 3x digital zoom, and a high-speed USB connection. View a comparison of the LifeCam VX-3000 and VX-6000.

- Trash
The microphone has a very loud hum or buzz. There is no support for it, no warranty information, Microsoft site keeps leading me to pay for support. Don't purchase.

- Webcam works
It's a good product from Microsoft. Easy to configure and use. Only drawback is its mic which conflicts with the installed mic drivers. However, that can be adjusted by the volume settings. For home us this is good product.

- Terrible Web Cam - AVOID!
This cam is not plug and play and sometimes even restarting your PC is not enough. Also disrupts other devices. Forget about this webcam.

- Install, Insert, Point-Click, & Touch = 1 Solid Cam!
Installation was Easy! I hooked it up yesterday and was caming up with all my buds, the advantage i had was that the audio was built in while they had to use external mics... ha!

Setup (using vista) -
All i did was install the CD, Insert the USB into the computer, Click a few ok buttons, adjust the voice and visual frequencies, and touch the "one-touch" on button and i was caming up with the crew!

Hands on -
The hands on experience was breath taking, i was soo excited. why? because my first web came sucked... cheap yes (logitec), but quality was so horribly bad i felt like i was trapped in the age where TV was first invented (lol). But it wasn't a lost because it strengthens my review of how sweeet this webcam is. The additional video effects are amusing ... Read More
