However, the resolution is butt-awful - low low low and pixellated like you
wouldn't believe.
Nowadays, one can buy a 640x480 camera for under $40.

It also comes with cheap-o [ArcSoft] photo software.
Just a glass viewfinder, takes 1 AAA battery.

disclaimers: I've seen one at Fry's; haven't bought one. I have a 640x480
camera that plugs onto my Palm Pilot that works well enough for its size.
This is the "old" model now, the Deluxe having a 1.3Mpix imager rather than a
.29Mpix imager. The new model is MSRP'ed at $80. I've considered buying one
for my daughter as her Barbie cam is an expensive Polaroid. I dislike the
Fry's shopping experience and I have been a happy Outpost customer in the past.
