Yep! Thats right...i got one for Christmas. A pretty nice one, actually...a Vivitar Vivicam 3610. Its great...and i can even make small video clips on it!  Whats funny though is th at although the box says that it'll run on a Mac with OS 9, the Mac is not mentioned anywhere else, and there's no Mac software on the CD. However, it works really well with iPhoto...and iPhoto actually handles it better than the crappy PC software it came with. So...get prepared to many random pics of Mac guts n stuff.

nice! believe it or not, i got almost the same one you did.. mine's a Vivicam 3715. i've already taken about 150 pictures with it as well as gone through 3 sets of AA batteries  oh BTW: it will work with OS9. you just gotta plug it into a USB port and it'll mount a drive on your desktop. you need the File Exchange control panel for it to work right though.

Terriffic..even though this iMac has only OS X on it! Btw, for all the rest of you 68kers out there, here's a way to make a camera with TV out work on a 68k with a Composite in port: Plug the camera into the Composite video port, launch Apple Video Player, put the pic on the screen that you want to d/l, and then go to Save Frame As in the Control window in Apple Video Player.
