    Looking to get a webcam, and if needed a headset, for my Dell Latitude D630notebook.

    Looking for it to stay on my notebook;
    Built-in microphone would be nice, but if it works to get a headset, then I'll consider it;
    If I need to get a headset, a case included with it would be useful;
    Works okay in low light; and
    is Skype compatible.​


    Thanks for the suggestions!

    Logitech Quick Cam Pro hands down. It even comes with a mini headset that hooks over the ear.

    I've got the quickcam pro, excellent camera although it's a bit fussy with skype. Mind kinda works now with the new beta drivers and beta skype (released this week!!!)

    If you have a bluetooth cell phone and BT on your lappy, I'd get a BT headset.

    I got the Logitech QuickCam For Notebook Pro. It's the best, as others have mentioned. Works awesome in lowlight compare to my other set; Creative Live Cam Notebook Pro. Built-in microphone has awesome range. My laptop is also a D630.
