Default Looking for UK Contact for Amazon.co.uk Purchase

Slightly OT but:

I have one of these cameras and thought that it would record images as
did the Toucam 840(which I also have). However, on the first imaging run
I found that if you use the video programme supplied with the camera it
records the video as mpeg NOT avi. Registax does not use mpeg. Is there
a utility that will convert to avi?

Yeah, I found the link after I sent this message to the newsgroup. I
purchased it. Now I have to wait for it to come. I've used the ToUcam Pro
for planetary imaging with excellent results. Seems to me that the 1.3M and
increased sensitivity of this new webcam would yield exceptional
performance.

Hello,

I'm in the US and Amazon.co.uk restricts sales of the described item to
UK only. I am in need of a Philips SPC 900NC Pixel Plus 1.3 MP Webcam
for PC and Notebook for astrophotography purposes. See this link:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/explorer/...lpo_ase/202-16
90648-1668625?ie=UTF8

The webcam can be ordered from Amazon.co.uk for 47.40 pounds. I would
prefer that the UK contact have a verifiable PayPal account to facilitate
quick transfer of funds to cover the purchase and shipping costs. If
someone is willing to assist, I will need them to do the neccessary USD
conversion and provide me with an accurate cost for reimbursement.
Obviously, I will send payment before you ship the item to me. If there
are legal reasons that prevent this, please let me know.

Scott
