iSight alternative for $23 shipped



MacAlly's IceCam is iChat AV compatible with a $10 shareware app, and it sits on a very cool adjustable cable.

The IceCam is not generally available yet (listed as backordered pretty much everywhere), but Academic Superstore has it priced at $22.95 with free shipping (at the time of this post). Although it requires a third-party app, iChatUSBCAM, to make it work with iChat AV, it appears to be a great alternative to Apple's $149 iSight.

I'm all about the adjustable cable (it looks a bit like the MacMice iFlex). Check it out:



You can order it from AS using this link:

I'll order one and post a mini review when it arrives. 
