Can't take this with you. Get a Flip or RCA Small Wonder.

On sale at Futureshop for $99 CAD ($30 off - sells for $99 USD). Going to pick up a couple today. From my research it seems that this is the best webcam at the $100 price point. The Lifecam VX-7000 doesn't cut it for image quality, functionality, and software interface.
