Sounds a bit strange...I think most if not all the cameras seem to have been received by now.
If you want to PM me the order number on Morgan's I can give them a call for you just to double check.

Still waiting. They said posted 21st Sep. and should be here no later than 7th Oct. 2 more days. Wonder whether its coming on a slow boat via.......
Robert
They took my money on the 21st, had not received anything for a while, contacted them and got the form message that others had got... arrived yesterday.
I flashed and installed the driver last night. I used it first on my laptop (imaging machine) and at one point when I was moving it around a bit I got the Blue Screen of Death. Used it on the main machine, once again moved it, got the BSoD, skyped a friend and it happened again. Since then I removed the lens and no amount of jiggling has gotten the dread result. Has anyone else experienced any scares like this?
Tony
BTW thanks for allerting us to this... I wanted another webcam for imaging.
I purchased one about 2 weeks ago. She arrived today, safe and sound. Very well packaged, and a nice looking unit!
Morgan's is a very trustworthy business. Always a gamble when we buy overseas, especially when they take your credit card number! All fears aside, thx Morgans
Ahhh... I spoke too soon I'm having problems installing the drivers for this webcam...
I'm running windows Vista.
It attempts to install the driver, and then comes to the following option: "Browse My Computer for Driver Software (Advance)". I point windows to the folder that I made on my desktop. The driver from Morgans is located here.
Then I get this error (see attachment). How can this be a Philips PCVC750K? Do you see the same in your devide manager? My device manager still indicates 'unknown' device...

Thanks Ken, I've emailed them today, if I don't hear within a couple of days, I might take you up on that offer.
Received my two days ago - just collected it today!! They were truthful in estimating the delivery time!! Thanks Morgans!
HTH
Cheers

Start quote ++++++++++ Dear Sir/Madam,
Thank your for your email. I am so sorry that your order has been delayed. A supplier of ours let us down and some of your goods did not arrive with us when promised.
We now have a firm commitment that we will be able to ship your order in the next three working days in full. We are proud that we have some 98% can ship immediately but recognise that this is of little consolation to you.
Once again, I apologies and hope you will give us the opportunity in the future to give you the prompt service you deserve.
Kind Regards Operations IJT Direct Ltd

So I'll wait another few days and see what happens
Any of you 'flash camera' guys heading to the IIS Astro Camp this week? If you're bringing an XP laptop, any chance of flashing my webcam for me? I've downloaded all the files, and will bring these, but I'm stuck with Vista:
Anyone have any pictures that they have taken with this, whilst I wait for mine ?
Mate, I tried a few times making picture of Jupiter but no luck
I can't get it in focus just with camera. With 2x Barlow its close but I have 12 Dobsonian and it moves away before i even have a chance to find focus.
Ken gave me advice how to do it and I am still finding it very hard with a Dob. I have beautiful pics that I made just with simple canon camera point and shoot through eyepiece. Both of the Moon and Jupiter. I thought this will be easy with this camera but it looks its much harder than I thought.
I'm having problems installing the drivers for this
