Any recommendations for portable video camera to clip on the lid of the T40. I've tried several that I had and found them all unsatisfactory due to the shape of the lip on the lid.

Thanks

Thanks guys. I've been looking at both of those. From your recommendations it would appear that they attach to the lid without a problem. I have a brand X that I used with my 600X but the shape of the lip on the lid of the T40 means that it won't stay in place.

These two look pretty good. The Creative unit has the advantage that it is entirely above the screen area whereas it looks like the Logicam will hang over the screen on the T40.

The Creative camera has a wider range of adjustment that doesn't rely on the display's position to get a good shot.

The Logitech has a higher "true" resolution at 1.3Meg non-interlaced.
