WEBCAM/FIREWIRE QUESTION

Archived from groups: alt.comp.periphs.webcam (More info?)

Would firewire & the appropriate webcam have
advantages over my philips webcam that uses usb?

I should be more specific! Theoretically would firewire
& an appropriate webcam give me better results for
streaming video in a chat room than a conventional
webcam & usb?

I'd be curious what your upload speeds are.
Original USB: 12Mbits/s (1.5MBYTES/s)
Hi-Speed USB: 480Mbits/s
