And believe it or not most people can not tell the difference between 30fps and 24fps videos, so, 22fps won't be bad.

It all depends on the sensor, whether or not this cam is any good.]]>Jan 9th 2010 10:08AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/09/facevsion-announces-touchcam-n1-skype-hd-webcam/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/09/facevsion-announces-touchcam-n1-skype-hd-webcam/Wow, just wow, you can buy whole HD camcorders for less and they still can't make a freaking webcam that does HD at a measly 30fps? And then claim to have a HD compressor?
I guess you just have to buy a hdmi/composite capture card and use a normal HD camcorder then, but it's pretty pathetic from all the webcam makers.

Just like the stupid Logitech Orb AF -- it has 1280x720 HD resolution, at 2 FPS!
This cam is a bit better at 22 FPS, but that's not good enough to put "HD" in the product name. It's really shameful to ride this "HD" hype and have no set standards of what something should have spec-wise to call itself "HD" -- they even have "HD" sunglasses, they're 10$ -- I'll put this product in the same category as the sunglasses unless the framerate spec is wrong and it's at LEAST 30 fps.]]>Jan 9th 2010 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/01/09/facevsion-announces-touchcam-n1-skype-hd-webcam/http://www.engadget.com/2010/01/09/facevsion-announces-touchcam-n1-skype-hd-webcam/
