Live! Cam Optia - Stylish and feature packed in one neat package!

This looks like a nice laptop webcam.

The specs say it is USB Video Class compliant, so theoretically it should work without drivers. But has anyone actually used it on OS X?

It works fine on my G5 powermac 2.0 The only problem is I had 3 kernel panics when I was trying to adjust the camera settings.

mac newbie... Intel Mini, 10.4.1 and have the Creative Live! Cam... can't get it to work with iChat? Any suggestions... it is a black "preview" window, so it appears to me the Mac isn't seeing it??

any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

forgot to add... using the Jabber account... I've been able to receive someone else's video that was using jabber, so I'm thinking that is not the problem? am I wrong
