Does anyone know if MS has released webcam LifeCam VX-5500 yet, and if they
have started to ship it too?

Thank you, Tom. I looked before, but not carefully enough. "October" was
the closest I found, no day given. Well, I will look out for it.

Shenan, CNet refers to Amazon, where it is *not* in stock.

Thanks, Bob. The most comprehensive info so far. But MS will not say when
in October, which I find irritating. So, I will wait and see.
