Summary: No driver for Palm OS devices
Review: A 1.3MP camera is ideal for PDA.

When would drivers be enabled for Palm OS devices, such as T3?

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't waste your money!
Review: I have never been as disappointed with a purchase as I am with this one. The results are a blurry unrecognizable blob of a poor excuse of a picture. My first toy Intel webcam that I bought 6 years ago seems like a Nikon 5700 compared to this thing. Shame on the manufacturer that has the audacity to sell this product as a legitimate camera at any price!

Summary: not bad for 1.3 MP, works with my T3
Review: Just bought one over the intenet and downloaded the driver for my T3 palm. So far I've found it takes well balanced color pictures (as long as lighting is adequate) with the expected resolution limitations of a 1.3 MP camera. You can transfer the pics to palm Photos and transfer them to the computer during hotsync without difficulty. So far no real complaints besides the noticeable shutter delay after pressing the button.

Summary: WARNING: check compatiblility !!
Review: Since this camera works w/ PocketPC 2003, I assumed it would be compatible w/ a Toshiba 755. Apparently it is not because the software installs but my PDA will not recognize the camera, and I have tried all of the troubleshooting solutions. The camera may be defective, but whichever, I regret it because it looks like a good product otherwise.

The reply I got from Veo support re the problem:
"we think this camera is compatible with Dell Axim X3, Toshiba e400, e800 and All hp P/PCs. We haven't tested Toshiba e740." Veo offered a full refund on return, but this is a disappointment.

Summary: Great for the price, but limited...
Review: The picture quality and software are quit good, especially for the price.

However, it only has manual focus which is not very easy to use unless you pick full closeup or infinity. Also, the CCD is rather insensitive so you need a really bright subject to get good pics. Finally, they designed the lens to point in the wrong direction by default; it points a the user rather than away. Normally this is not a problem, you just swivel the camera, but you have to do this every time you take it out of the provided pouch because it holds the unit only one way; the camera points at the user. Silly design.

But, for the $75, it is quite nice.
