Hey Jai If you are also thinking about video calling with skype, then this is my recommendation, a Logitech E3500 [1]. It is usb and has a built in microphone, plugged it in and it "just worked" in 8.10 :-) --Michael [1] http://www.logitech.com/index.cfm/webcam_communications/webcams/devices/4267&cl=gb,en -- _________________________________ Michael Fletcher Visit my website here - http://www.mgfletcher.com/blog Interested in Linux?
