    A new webcam system from Hovercam.

    Hovercam’s Neo3 is a very unique webcam system. It not only lets you shoot close-ups of documents and objects, but it includes a second video camera.  This two camera system lets you do web or projector presentations showing your charts, visuals, etc. – while showing your face in any corner of the screen. I’m going to use the main Neo3 camera to do close-ups of gadgets I talk about, while using the second video camera to show my studio guests. A nice thing about the Neo3 is it’s small footprint. It was easy to set up. Just plug in the HoverCam Neo3 document camera and connect the USB cable to the computer. You can also use the VGA cable to connect to a projector. Then you’re ready to show your presentation. If you’re using a projector, you don’t even need the PC. You can use the built in annotation tools to draw or write notes on your presentation as you talk. The Neo 3's fully adjustable second camera displays the presenter and materials at the same time. And the price is right! $299. There are models under $200 if you do a web search ($219 MSRP) if you don’t need the second camera setup.

    The Neo3 is sold on Amazon here. I haven't shopped here:
