I am looking for a webcam camera for my laptop. This one looks quite nice and the price is pretty low.
I am wondering whether i should have a try. They provide free shipping.

If it does 320x240 at 35fps I'd buy it. But I assume it's 35 fps at 160x120...

5mp for still image probably.

:\ i agree! it cant be 5 megapixels, after all, it's only $4.07

I have a cheap 5MP webcam I picked up under a similar deal a year ago. In no way is this thing capable of 5mp, the visual quality is grainy, poor video even under good lighting.

can you mod this for the open source "free view" or whatever it is called

So what we have here is a misplaced decimal point. It's .5 MP ?
