Yeah it does ;-)

If you get stuck, HP's software for the "PhotoSmart" camera also works
and has some alternate features. This is because the PhotoSmart is the
same camera as the Veo (made by Veo for HP).

One other thing worth looking at while you're there is the Portrait
application for videochat which was updated last year to work with
this camera : http://research.microsoft.com/~jiangli/portrait
