Has anyone tried out or heard about the new Orion SSCI II webcam? At 1.3 megapixels, it should be better than a ToUcam. Maybe not as much for the planets as for a lunar imager.

I tried two; neither one worked for me. A driver incompatability
I think. Both went back after wasting too much time on it.

There are other people who at least got it working. Check out:

It seems to be identical to this microscope camera:
