Smallest Usb Webcam?

[paolo]

Pandora could came handy in using it as a camcorder... as long you don't have to use a webcam with 1,5 meter cable.. Do someone know if there exist some pendrive-sized usb cameras (with mic)? would be great!!

Do you particularly want a USB one? There are some very small SDIO cameras about. Don't know about the mic, but the Pandora also has one built in.

well, then shouldn't be more than 45€, but let me say you pay the geekiness more than the megapixels Also the psp quickcam had a similar cost, and the same image quality.. but this HP is smaller!

usb driverless webcam

"driverless" webcams seem to be more likely to work out-of-box with Linux. At least I have had good luck with them.

Merchants should be happy to test their webcam on Linux before selling it to you.
Even if the webcam is not "driverless", there's still a good chance that a Linux driver exists for it.

Here's a cheap usb pinhole webcam that works on Linux.
But the resolution is not spectacular.

That Go!Cam has 1.3 megapixels.
Mounts atop the PSP by connecting to the mini-USB port.
Can it be connected to a regular USB port on a PC ?

It has more things involved, sony has the PSP set in hardware to be a client connection, meaning the send and receive are switched, and it has a different initiation, so I don't think it will work on the computer at all.
