dno, just saw a forum that said it works with mac.

 

[006]

Right, but Logitech does not have drivers for Mac. That's why I ask.

Yes they do. I have the QuickCam 4000 Pro and using it with my mac.
HOWEVER, I'm with james on this one, get an iSight instead, much better. Esp. if you're using Delicious Library like I do (entering EAN-numbers by hand is so lame compared to scanning them)

alright, another Delicious Library user!.. i LOVE that app.... especially with the latest update the iSight is a killer barcode reader. \m/

ha ha ha.. yep, i'm shooting for Express Lane Checkout Clerk! heh heh..

actually, Delicous Library allows you to use the iSight to scan barcodes of your media library... CDs, DVDs, Books, Games, etc., and create a catalog of what you have that has pictures of the media, reviews, value, etc. you can sync the lists to your iPod as well, which has saved me buying the same CD a second time more than once... i just check the list in the store if i'm not sure if i already have something or not. with a collection the size of mine, it's definitely an issue.

good for insurance reasons too.. you can prove what all you lost to theft or fire.

i guess you missed the part about syncing it with the iPod. my iPod is always with me.

ahh ok, i thought you meant syncing it with the ipod as far as album info and reviews/covers, not the actual whole catalogue.
