Apple Video Camera and iChat Updates
ThinkSecret reports that Apple is working on video conferencing in the new iChat as well as a possible video camera introduction:
- While many specific details are largely unconfirmed, multiple sources also suggest that the company plans to announce some sort of video camera to complement the video-enabled iChat.
Previous confirmation of Video Conferencing iChat appeared in February, and vague reports of a communication device.

I initially thought this would be lunacy to have Apple compete in the world of videocams. However, a cheap ($50) webcam under the apple brand with apple software/support would be a great addition. I am a fickle use, and would pay the apple premium for a no-hassle product. Good move.

Rebirth of the QuickTake? Or are talking about something more like a cheap webcam, here?
First Think Secret tells us about some kind of radically different OLED screen iPod, and now this. The video conferencing is no surprise, but some kind of camera unit? Interesting...

Seriously (just to speculate a bit), if Apple made an actual hard drive based digital camera it would be the best thing to happen to digital cameras in years.
Remember Steve said he isn't entering the Phone market (thank God!) because Apple can't improve phones enough. But I'm pretty sure Apple could do some great things for cameras.
Here's hoping! :D

Hard to imagine what Panther will be like.. seems like they've been busy with the updates.. Updated iTunes, updated Quicktime, iSync, iMovie, suspect an updated Safari soon ? and on and on. Trying my best to hold out for a new machine.. hopefully 970 chip ? and new Panther OS ..

Video camera built into the monitor of the iMac, and Studio Displays, the top fram of the screen on the iBook and PowerBook. Like the Sony VAIO Picture Book.
Maybe this is what the new port on the PowerMac motherboards are for, because the ADC USB connections wouldbe too slow, and then you would be required to buy an Apple monitor.
