Advantages: Good, hard-working USB modem Disadvantages: None
When we signed up for AOL Broadband we were told that a modem would, naturally, be included as part of the package.
The modem that we received was a BT Voyager 100. The BT Voyager 100 is small and compact and -touch wood!- has never given us any cause for concern.
Hooking it up is very easy. Hey. If I can do it, so can almost anyone else! You plug a blue cable into the USB port on the modem. The yellow cable is then plugged into the BT ADSL MF50 line box which is plugged into the phone point. You load the software into the computer, and you are well away, as the saying goes.
With AOL the setting up process regarding the modem is virtually automatic so should not present you with any problems whatsoever.
The BT Voyager 100 is light in weight and, as I said before, compact in size and dimensions. It is just under 4.5 inches ...
Advantages: Audio built in, video recording, snapshots, focus, zoom Disadvantages: No light on front
This is a very good webcam and has many different useful features. You can easily change settings on this webcam so that you can have it in many different colours or contrasts. E.g. Full Colour, black and white etc.

It can take snapshots instantly by just pressing the button on the top of the webcam and also comes with a video recording software package which allows you to record your own videos with sound ...
Advantages: Excellent Value Disadvantages: Needs a lot of light, not great quality
"How can a webcam be so cheap!?" was my thought when I first saw this, and with a few pounds in my pocket and decided to buy one.
Even at such a ludicress price (under £9!), this webcam is quite good quality. The resolution is pretty good and is good for those getting in to using a webcam. It has focus control from 10cm to infinity which works to average ability. This device requires no additional drivers (Windows).
The camera is supported by a 30cm flexible USB cable, which makes it ideal for use with laptops, but is not recomended with desktop computers unless a USB extension cable is used.
The camera itself is ludicressly tiny, only 4*4*4cm in dimensions. It is constructed for silver finished plastic with a translucent back. The construction is pretty secure but certainly not water resistant. The camera is stylish ...
