The Logitech Quickpro 9000 is all you would want in a web cam. It works very well with Skype and has the easiest connectivity we have experienced.
The desk top control panel gets in the way so we disabled the startup menu option so we can start it when we need it only.
Great item to complete our family communication experiences

As advertised, quick and easy install and setup, clear picture and sound, fun and easy to use. Excellent value for the price, got one for kids so we can stay in touch with the grandkids. It even works for the IT impaired elder generation:)

I got this camera for my whole family for Christmas, and we now use Skype for free to stay in touch, and we are LOVING IT! My mom only had 256kbps speed DSL, which I didn't know even existed, and the cam had trouble with that. Once we upgraded her, it was fine. I think the slowest you could really get away with to take advantage is 650kbps in a DSL spped test.
The Microphone is PERFECT, the software is a 2 minute install and easy for anyone. I got it with a 20 dollar rebate, which made it better.
The other reviews mention that the contraption they use to secure it to your monitor suck, and they are very accurate. It sucks, but is workable.

I purchased this as a gift for a relative so that we could communicate online. I have an older Logitech cam which works very well, but this new one is even better. It's noticeable improvement is in its improved mike and, most of all, its faster rate of screen transmission. Motion captured by this cam is still a bit jerky, but much smoother that with my old one.
