With regard to the 8 MB size, if it is 8 MB is WinXP as well then I'd
advice you to call the OEM and demand satisfaction - you paid for 128 MB
and got only 8, apparently! Say that you saw it on WinXP and they will
have to explain to you what is going on. My guess is, they have a bug in
firmware. Or they really have only 8 MB [addressable]. Or maybe you need
to format the media.

You may want to add the new device to the list. Yours is 0104.

Also, in a webcam mode you will need V4L driver, not mass storage. But
probably it isn't worth the trouble if the device connects at 12 Mbps.
