RE: [info-tech] Skype and boardrooms
Chad, check out the Philips cameras. They make a few that have external mics, which you could place for the best reception.

RE: [info-tech] Skype and boardrooms
Chad- West Des Moines talked about using the Lumens Flex Cams (the red ladybug as our District now knows them by) as a Skype camera. Can't vouch for it, and don't know about the microphone idea either. But, it is on my list of things to check out.

Logitech Quickcam 9000. We just worked with one in the boardroom last night. It worked great right up until he lost connection in Des Moines...
