Review: My wife's family is pretty far away, and with a couple of small children around, we thought it would be nice for the grandparents to be able to see the kids occasionally. So a few months ago I picked up a matching pair of Microsoft Lifecam VX5000...

Perfect for Skype

Date of Review:  Sep 12, 2009
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended if you want a good quality camera/microphone for a reasonable price.

The built-in microphone automatically picks up your voice with remarkable clarity. The VX-5000 is seamlessly integrated with Windows Live Messenger for easy setup and use.
