It's the only one that they sell :) It says "Motion Detection Software
Webcam DEXXA Get what you need" on the top. Someone claimed that there are
two chipset revisions which claim to be the same but of which one is
incompatible, however that not only sounds stupid (because that would
cause detection problems on the holiest of holy Operating Systems...) but
also sounds like an excuse for not being able to checkout cvs properly :)

That's what I thought, hence I think I'll buy another one. Got this one in

order it in...if so, I'll take another one too.
