I know nothing about these specific models, but most seem to be ov511
based. Using the camera is as simple as:

insmod videodev
insmod usbvideo
insmod ov511

And then ocnfiguring and running your webcam app. I use "webcam" which is
provided by xawtv. The worst part is getting that configured.

I'd buy one on spec and see what happens...
