A very neat little web cam with a great picture - even in low light conditions. The sound works really well, as does the face tracking feature (it tracks your movement to keep your face in the centre of the shot). This is definitely an impressive cam.

Now the negatives...whilst not really problematic the mount could be a little more positive, but the biggest drawback for me is that whilst my 6 month old cam worked fine on Windows XP, it definitely does not work with MS Vista. Having just purchased a new desktop already loaded with Vista I had not expected Philips flagship web cam not to work with it. It gets worse, as having contacted Philips they are saying that they currently have no information as to when a driver will be released.

Not enough information. We want to know more. I know I am only a white dot, but from the feedback i have received I think about half a page to a page of A4 would be an optimum length for a review. The advice to read around other reviews to check on length and amount of info included is invaluable. Tuxley
