If you’re on a desktop computer, if your laptop doesn't include a web cam or if the web cam in your laptop's bezel is of the VGA (640x480 resolution) variety, it's time to step up to HD. Microsoft's LifeCam Cinema brought 720p HD video to web chat and recordings. Now, similar technology has been shrunk down to fit in this unobtrusive little cam. Perfect for keeping in touch when shipping off to school or for recording YouTube response rants in HD.
