You also get a 3 year warranty with product registration.

The drive is compatible with both PC’s as well as Mac.

Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000

If you have someone who is moving out (somewhere far) either for studies or work, gifting him or her a Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 is certainly a neat idea. Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 offers superior video quality and high definition still photos. It also comes with Automatic face tracking software.

Three key features of Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 give you a superior Windows Live Experience. First, the Windows Live Call Button makes it easy to start a video call. Simply press the button to see who’s online, and you’re on your way to a video call. Second, with the LifeCam Dashboard you can access video effects and control your webcam from the Windows Live Messenger window. Lastly, with One-Touch Blogging, a single click allows you to upload to Windows Live Spaces, an “online scrapbook” that lets you easily post blogs, photo albums, and personal music lists.

It must be noted that while the VX-3000 is optimized for use with Windows Live Messenger, Microsoft LifeCams also work with other instant messaging programs, such as Skype, Yahoo Messenger and AOL Instant Messenger and others.

You can get a new Microsoft LifeCam VX-3000 from Amazon for $20.99. If interested in buying, check out this link for more.
