The Logitech QuickCam Chat is typical of entry-level products in that it gets the short shrift from reviewers. No review source provides comprehensive coverage. In such cases, user reviews are the next best alternative, and we found plenty for the Logitech QuickCam Chat. Cowboy Frank.net has the best review. ConsumerGuide.com also has a professional review, but it seems to be based more on company-provided information than testing.
