The only reason I rated this one star is because there was no -10 stars choice. The company is out of business. No suppport. How can Amazon continue to sell this junk??????????

Summary: Perfect Little Camera
Review: I got the JamCam 3.0 a year ago for my birthday. It has been an awesome camera. It takes great pictures. You just have to make sure you have enough lighting. I use this camera to take pictures of anything. Then I print them with my Epson Stylus Color 777. They turn out great! I don't see why sooooooooo many people don't like it. It is a GREAT digital camera for the price.

Summary: terrible- company out of business!!!
Review: Got this for my 4 year old. After she was all excited and took lots of pictures, we tried to load them. Software does not work with xp, did not work with my machine running me. Cannot just load the windows drivers. Then, after looking online, found out the company has been OUT OF BUSINESS for at least one year. (website on the box is listed for sale). No support. No updated drivers. Cannot load memory card using a card reader as the format is not recognized. STAY AWAY!!! It is appalling that this is still being sold.

Summary: BEWARE!!
Review: I bought this one two years ago. It seemed a good deal at only ~ 50 bucks from Target. Then, it turned out it could contain only 8 pics without a card, so I had to buy expansion cards. The battery gets sucked dry fast, so I got through several 9V ones. Before I even knew it I spent over 100 bucks. What did I get in return?

1. Horribly low resolution.
2. Lost entire collection of pics due to power failures.
3. JamCam software was buggy and unreliable. It is not compatible with newer Windows versions.
4. The company no longer exists, so there is nobody to turn to for customer support.
5. The lens simply cannot focus well at distances larger than a couple of meters.
6. No way to view pics other than through the software, but see #3 above.

Well, there are a couple of positives, e.g. sturdy build, low price, and easy handling, but just look at the above and get running away.

Final thought: Almost nobody is rich enough to buy cheap. If I had saved 100 bucks and put in some more, I would have had a decent camera that I would still have been using.

Summary: JamC@m for Business
Review: The JamC@m is a reliable product for those who need a study portable digital camera that is not very complicated. I'm not James Bond, I don't need to see through large buildings or any of the other special features that may only confuse the lower-end dirt poor employees the government requires to be employed.

JamC@m makes my life easier, Furizzle!

Summary: stay away!
Review: I received this camera free over a year ago when I bought Windows XP upgrade, and even at a price of $0.00 it's NOT worth having! Here are some reasons:

- No ability to selectively erase pictures. You either erase ALL of them, or not.

- No viewer on the camera to see your pictures. You have to wait until you transfer them to a PC.

- Very poor picture quality. Don't take any or vacation family photos with this: you'll be disappointed.

- The smaller resolution setting (320x240), which allows storage of 30-some images, does not work: the PC software always crashes when attempting to retrieve them. The response that I got from their tech support was that this was a known problem, and to always use the 640x480 resolution mode.

- The MMC memory chip I bought to expand beyond the 8-picture limitation worked once, then the camera fried it.

- The company is out of business: good luck getting support and software updates....

Amazon even sent me a replacement camera, and it too experience all the same problems.

I've since bought a used Sony CyberShot camera, and been completely happy!

Summary: The blue version's review may be helpful
Review: Use the search to check for the blue version of the JamCam - there is a link to drivers for XP and 2000 (and others) there.

Quick summary: decent 1st camera, if you can stand 640x480. An MMC card is not needed but makes the camera much more useful. You can't use an MMC reader to read this card, only the camera. The flash is too powerful at close range.

Stop by the blue version's reviews for lots more.

Summary: Company out of business, camera horrible
Review: I bought this camera based on Amazon.com reviews stating it was fine for family emailing. It arrived and looked easy. Come to find out, the software included is outdated for any of the new windows software. It can not find the ports or drivers in it's install. Tried to contact company to find that the phone is disconnected and company website shutdown. Spent two days trying to download the driver software I needed off the internet and none of it worked. I do NOT recommend this camera at all - there is no support for it if you have any issues. I notice that it's for sale everywhere, and given the company has gone under, find this to be very bad "retailmanship".

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Dont bother.
Review: You get what you pay for. Pictures are blurred and gritty at best, but what do you expect at this price?
