If you want to accessorize your desk with something both cool and useful, it's time you checked on the Hercules Deluxe Optical Glass Webcam. This isn't the sort of device you buy because it's cute, it's soft or does funny tricks, it's actually serious stuff.

The best thing about this cam is the fact it boasts a genuine glass lens for sharper images. Of course, it happens to have an included headphone
with microphone. Not to mention other options like noise canceling.

At a first glimpse, the web cam strikes you with its shiny brushed finish, which a lot of ladies could find useful for a certain make-over adjustment.

When it comes to its brain, the Hercule's web cam features 1.3 mega pixels resolution for still image, while the VGA one for both still image and video content is of 1280 x 960. In addition, it performs up to 30 images per second, and it's said to have a highly stable frame rate.

As for its use, the web cam is great for laptops and LCD screens, since it sports a dual-use fixing system using a claw which adapts to all sorts of versions.

Not to mention it comes with a 2 meter USB 2.0 and 1.1 compatible cable with potentiometer for adjusting the intensity of the night vision LEDs. Besides that, while being used for chatting, the web cam can perform 360 degrees lateral rotation and 180 degrees vertical one.

Apparently, it is compatible with all types of video conferencing software available on the Internet, such as MSN Messenger, VSkype, Yahoo, AOL AIM, Windows Messenger and more.

If you're interested in purchasing this bling bling high tech item you can try directly at Hercules. The price tag? Don't worry, I'd say 20 pounds is a reasonable price, given its design patterns and capabilities. Doesn't it look a little bit pimped, too?
