messaging network, to make video calls easy and now more meaningful than ever with quick Photo Swap

access.

Aesthetically speaking, “sleek and chic” best describes the LifeCam NX-3000. The new design concept allows

it to blend in with consumers’ laptop monitors and better complement the latest high-tech computer

gadgets. A protective carrying case lets on-the-go users easily transport this small yet very effective device.
