    I'm just wondering, where is the mic located? (Not the mic jack) Also, do you guys notice when webcamming, the webcam gets really hot. When I touched the cam area after webcamming, it's as hot as the CPU area on the MacBook that I felt in the past.

    i think the only mic is the one with the A/V package. it should be in the same housing that holds the webcam. look for a small hole or a little bit of metal mesh.

    Yeah like night said, its the little hole to the left of the camera, same place where the blue light is, just on the opposite side. And yeah the camera does get really hot after a while. I wouldnt worry about it to much, as long as its not on for long hours at a time, that might be bad for it in the long run.
