    ON my Dell m1210, the logitech integrated webcam has some nice software utility for snapshots, video recording, etc. Are there any programs available to us Thinkpad users?

    if ayone else was iterested in this topic, i experimented with the dell m1210's logitech Quickcam software, and it works. You can use this utility to take pictures and video w/sound from your itegrated Thinkpad webcam. You can download it from the dell support site and search for xps m1210 software. It has a zip package that contains the Quickcam installer (about 50mb). You can delete all the dell driver material (about 100mb)
