    I was thinking of getting the Asus ul80vt and I saw the webcam is 0.3mp. I like to use Skype a lot with family and friends and I was just wondering if someone could take some pictures or video to show the quality of this webcam.

    I have the Asus ul30vt which is the same hardware as your ul80vt and the webcam is passable for Skype. It definitely doesn't look as good as the 1.3mp camera in my Asus 1000HE, but it does the job.
