[Walmart] Creative Labs Live Cam Voice Webcam $29.97 @WM, $152.95 @BB

I picked up one of these webcams at Walmart London North tonight. It seems like a great deal as its over 5x the price on the BB clearance outlet website (see link below). Before I attack the heat welded plastic container does anyone have this webcam, or know if its any good, or even have any views on Creative as a manufacturer/brand? I already have a basic beige one and wanted to upgrade without spending big bucks.

By the way there were 5 left at WM London North. This is the SKU number on my receipt if anyone needs it to find stock in WM: 005465113561

Wow, price difference of $130 means you can get it at $29.97 minus $13 or so, good find OP!

Found this great website section comparing loads of webcams including Live Cam Voice and Quickcam 9000.

Cowboy Frank's pictures don't show any fish eye distortion but the wide angle view looks useful for me especially as I often have my children together talking to relatives overseas.

Quickcam 9000 is top rated webcam but its $120 vs $30. I think this webcam is a keeper at $30 but I'll look around and see what else I can find.

I own it and it's definitely a decent camera, especially for the price

The added mic isn't that great IMO, but the 1.3 mp camera makes this a hot buy!
