[expert] Aiptek VGA PenCam Trio

[Jeremy Gregorio]

   Just picked one of these up from my local walmart for $30. It 
doesn't seem to want to work. Kamera and gphoto2 can't 
detect/communicate with it (Kamera complains about bad perameters, 
gphoto2 just can't seem to find it). The camera is detected on the usb 
bus (Shows up with it's correct id and everything). I've got a bad 
feeling they changed the chipset along the way and so it won't work, but 
I thought I'd ask if anyone's had any luck with the newer iterations of 
the thing. I'd be neat if it worked (I wanna take pictures of my action 
figure collection for a rather pointless web site :). Failing that, can 
someone recomend a digital camera for under $50 (maybe for under $75)? 
Thanks again.
