Introduction

Thank you for your purchase of our digital camera. This unit
can be used as a web cam (camera to use to chat over the
Internet), or it can also be used as a low-resolution digital
camera. This camera is equipped with an 8MB built-in
SDRAM, therefore you are able to use it to take up to 117
low-resolution photos under QVGA mode. Although the
clarity may not be flawless, the Digital Camera quality is the
best for its value.
Please note that in order to speak with friends and
colleagues over the Internet, you will need a PC headset
and microphone. Any standard PC headset will operate with
this digital camera and is available at your local computer
retailer.
