Nope :-)..

But I've just been playing this game as well, and I've ordered a Creative
Video Blaster Webcam 5 for a project I'm working on...   $99+GST

I currently have a cheap-o Dick smith one which only works under windows
(conextant chipset) so I've been running a Linux machine, and the windows
one side by side and ftp'ing the images from the cam every 5 seconds to the
Linux machine..

The problem I've had is that all of the webcams that have (easy) Linux
support seem to be out of stock.  The Logitech's are back ordered
everywhere I tried, as is is the Creative one.

Not much help I know, but you're not alone in the search..  Philips used to
be the best bet, but Philips don't make web-cams any more..  Not sure why.

Cheers, Me.
