	I got both mine today. Plugged one into a T61 Thinkpad, started
	Cheese and there I was in all my glory. I didn't really play
	with it, but I can tell you Cheese says it's using a Vimicro
	USB Camera (Altair) (/dev/video0). The led's light up when the
	thumbwheel on the cable is switched on and it's adjustable low
	to high. It has a USB and 1/4" I assume audio plug.
