Some additional questions to the above QuickCam posting: (1) Where are the programming interfaces for the QuickCam documented? I would like to look at them before buying a unit. I am one of those primitive users on 2.1.0, but will upgrade if necessary. (2) What other inexpensive video capture options are there? (3) Will the QuickCam interface accept video input from others sources, or is it an integrated unit?
