Microsoft LifeCam NX-3000
Reviewed on October 19, 2007 It's cheap and compact and delivers acceptable video quality, but the bundled software plagues Microsoft's LifeCam NX-3000 Webcam. Creative has a model for nearly the same price that we like better.

Ipevo PoV Web Camera
Reviewed on May 30, 2008 Middling performance and oddly lacking software overshadow the Ipevo PoV Web Camera's excellent macro mode. Don't buy it unless you need a Webcam for the express purpose of recording close-up still shots or up-close-and-personal video chats. TAGS: Skype, webcam, IM client, videoconferencing, app, camera, monitoring, photograph, video, IM, Microsoft Corp.

Skype 2
Reviewed on December 13, 2005 Though Skype 2 suffers from middling voice quality when calling landline phones, it's still one of the best free VoIP services around, and its new Skype Video feature makes it even better. TAGS: Skype, SkypeOut, dashboard, call, toolbar, VoIP, webcam, headset, conference, video, Microsoft Outlook, IM

Yak WorldCity VoIP
Reviewed on February 13, 2006 Yak WorldCity VoIP has some compelling features, but the overall offering doesn't yet measure up to the more flexible and full-featured Skype 2.

Reviewed on April 24, 2006 It's neither flashy nor fancy, but NetZero Voice excels in the area that matters most to a VoIP service: call quality. TAGS: NetZero, VoIP, call, dashboard, VoIP service, Skype, microphone, cell phone, IM, PC
