Following on from covering Microsoft’s newly announced BlueTrack mice – namely the Wireless Mobile Mouse 5000 and Wireless Mobile Mouse 6000 – MS has today introduced a new webcam in their LifeCam series, the Microsoft LifeCam VX-2000, which is aimed specifically at consumers looking for ‘the biggest bang for their buck.
The new Microsoft LifeCam VX-2000, which MS bill as offering ‘quality video connection of less’, offers up a 1.3 megapixel sensor for VGA resolution video capture and, apart from also being capable of capturing stills, also boasts (unspecified) visual effects as well as seamless integration with Windows Live allowing for video messages to be left for those off-line as well as a Windows Live Call Button which, as the title suggests, will initiate a video call.
The budget Microsoft LifeCam VX-2000 is set to ship as of June and will set you back just shy of $30.
