Folks,

Anyone tried this webcam?

HUE HD Webcam
http://www.huehd.com/

"True 2 Megapixel CMOS sensor"

Also on Amazon:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hue-webcam-green-built-Windows/dp/B001NF8T7M/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1259952034&sr=1-6


Searching around, it appears to use:
microdia: Detected SN9C20X Bridge
microdia: Detected MT9M111 Sensor

And the sensor is listed as:

MT9M111: 1.3-Megapixel, 1/3-Inch, Low-power CMOS Image Sensor Camera
System-on-a-chip


Despite the apparent "2 Megapixel" lie, 1.3Mpixels should be fine.

Or any recommendations?

Cheers,
Martin
