    hi

    i need a webcam for my CF-29 Mk4, and the Logitech Orbit AF 2mpx is one that I am looking for. It shows that it can run microphone and webcam built in which is very good idea for me.

    However, I never use this webcam with CF-29 Mk4 nor use only this webcam.

    Please give me your advice.

    - Is this webcam worth with Cf-29 Mk4 and does it work well with both webcam and microphone function?

    - If not, which one you are using well now? Could you tell me?
    thank you very much.

    36 bros read this, nobody return advice.

    i wonder, it seems that many of CF-29 owners don't use this one with webcam and microphone, why is that?

    please give me your advice if you successfully use CF-29 with webcam and microphone.

    thanks a lot

    i want to use good webcam that has built in microphone, it should be the best for me. Because at this moment I can not use microphone and webcam.

    Panasonic is really crazy when they designed the port for both webcam and microphone but they even did not put microphone there, so crazy and annoying.

    thanks.

    i wonder and make quest, because I tried to use my microphone and headphone with the laptop without success with Skype, Yahoo, X-lite softphone, MagicJack device.

    so I don't know if a webcam and built in micro phone can work or not. I now really hate returning RMA items. So annoying.

    May be it is something wrong with the laptop or the headphone, I don't know, but it makes me very confuse.

    it is so confuse with me now:

    1- loudspeaker is working so well.

    2- headset plug into the laptop can work well when i use it as headset (both microphone and earphone).

    3- no skype, yahoo, softphone and MagicJack work with this headphone.

    PS: however, i just found that yahoo and skype is crashed now, firefox is crashed many times.
    Are all those issues come from Windows XP SP3???

    I have never had good experience with WIndows XP3. In the past, XP SP3 was quite bad with me. I have no other idea.

    can you give me advices?

    Get a good USB camera with a built-in mic. You'll be fine. I had a Skype setup on a CF-29 that worked great!
