Re: time to replace my Quickcam




I have the aiptek. Currently, I have software for Linux that lets you 
download the stills and do general camera control.

I have been in contact with the writer of this software to provide a
full video4linux interface, and it should be out soon. If I lose
patience, then I will write it myself. The main problem is that aiptek
won't release details of the protocol, so you need to sniff on USB when
its running windows.
