I bought my Logitech TV CAM HD in order to have top quality Skype access via my wide screen TV so that I can start taking guitar lessons with a US-based teacher (I live in the UK). Being of modest technological ability, it was important for me to own something simple to install & use.

First installed it to talk to family in the UK. Worked so well all 4 famillies bought one.

This product is compatible with Google TV only. But can be connect with HDMI cable from a laptop to TV. Good clean video on Skype.

The product was in the condition described. No issues with shipments.

Are you one of those people that can't stand it when other people one-up you on gear? Are you someone that has a terminal case of upgraditus? Do you stand in line for hours just to get the latest iDevice and then run to work to show it off to all your jealous friends?

Usually Skype requires you to sit at a computer. Logitech's TV Cam HD allows you to stay comfortably seated on your couch or comfy chair: it has been designed to work with a television set. It works very well, though we had some nits to pick as well.

The Logitech TV Cam HD brings Logitech into a market that is highly desired, but yet poorly served: Skype on the big screen. It is obvious that a lot of people would love using Skype on their TV, and the proliferation large and cheap LCD TVs only makes this idea more pervasive.

This has to be one of those technologies you would have loved to see arrive on the market years ago. While useful, I would imagine this kind of functionality will soon come standard on new TVs arriving on the market.

The Logitech TV Cam HD for Skype brings video and voice calls to the lounge or entertainment room.

The QuickCam Zoom is one of Logitech's newer cameras, at a suggested price of $79. This blue-and-white camera looks like a large golf ball with a plastic visor that can be lowered over the lens for privacy.
