    Having just bought today a Polaroid PDC2350 digital camera today and finding that it is too hard for me to use, I have been reading reviews on various cameras and this is the best yet that would suit me. Full marks for your reviews it is most helpful to people like me who haven't a clue on red eye and zoom lenses etc., just plain and simple will do. A+

    The XGA Digital Camera WDM Still Image Capture
    is reported in the system device on control
    panel only as a device, for Windows Me you should install MPSetup.exe (Media Player 9, then DirectX 8.1) you can get a freeware Eyeball Chat 2.2 which will run the Camera as a
    XGA Digital Camera WDM Video Capture (reported under System Summary Module - MultiMedia within Sandra 2002). It does
    work especially better in Win XP, but it is
    acceptable in Windows ME. Its worth remembering to
    leave the GDC 1388 connected and on whilst doing
    above on usb (WinMe will detect it better). The Eyeball utility also accepts MSN,AIM,
    Yahoo! & Buddies!.
