:)Please tell me where one can find a Color Quickcam (_not_ a Quickcam
:)VC) for under $100, even after the rebate.   You can't.  Even the
:)lowest price listed at Pricewatch was $149, and that was after the $30
:)rebate.  Yes, the VC's can be had for under $100 after the rebate, but
:)like I said, they're a lower resolution (352x288 vs. 640x480 of the
:)regular Color Quickcam) and also can only do around 15 fps.  The
:)original post was for a regular quickcam.  $119 is a good deal as far
:)as that goes.
