Re: [ubuntu-uk] Recommendations for Webcam with mic?
Ebay have this offer USB 5 Megapixel Webcam for Ubuntu 9 / Linux £9.99 free P&P http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=270474462748&ssPageName=ADME:B:EF:GB:1123#ht_3375wt_1050 I am thinking of going for it any comment welcome. I really wanted something for myself like the Logitech QuickCam Pro 9000 Webcam, but they are a bit pricey.

At least you know with the Logitech camera you're getting a half decent camera unlike some of the cheaper no name cameras out there. Just checked online and the Playstation Eye does work on Linux too with a kernel 2.6.29 or higher. Great for when the kids are fed up with playing with it (or I guess for maybe using it on PS3 Linux?).

Not sure if the Playstation Eye (PS3 camera) works, I might be able to tell you later when the one I've ordered turns up (as long as it's not sealed as it's a Christmas pressie for my daughter).
