What webcam?

    I hope someone might be able to suggest a webcam, there is so many out there and its wrecking my head at this stage!

    I have a HP NC4200, XP sp2. I need something that is "plug & play" (I think thats the correct wording!), as I have no cd/dvd drive. I am using mobile broadband if that makes any difference.

    I have family in Australia that I want to be able to Skype with.

    Any help really appreciated :)

    I baught this one recently to replace a crappy old one. It is excellent quality. It also has an integrated microphone, you don't need to use the driver CD is comes with just download the drivers from www.microsoft.com/hardware, you may be able to get it or another cheaper online, but I can say this is a good webcam quality wise

    Thanks Nick,

    That was one of the ones I was looking at. Will give it a try and see how it goes.
