iChat AV, 10.4.9 Update and USB Camera

According to the following article:

http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304821

the 10.4.9 update includes , "... iChat support for USB Video Class webcams."

I have a mac mini, with an Intel Core Duo and I want to use iChat AV. iSights are not available, unless I want to spend a fortune on eBay. I am not interested in downloading iChatUSB from ecamm. I beleive that the cameras have to support USB Video Class. Info here:

Please let me (us) know what cameras you have tried and found to have worked well for iChat AV without installing third party software. Right now I am leaning towards the Logitech Quickcam Fusion. Any thoughts everyone?

Thanks,

Greg
