Yes,most useful -  thank you Michael.
I shall order a couple with my next ebuyer order and see what I can do to 
convert them. The pic looks very similar to my old Logitech Quickcam 
Messenger, which I experimented with some time ago - different vid/pid though 
of course.
Again, thanks for the info - will let the list know how I get on with 
converting the cam to infra red once I get hold of one.
