Mac compatable web cams

OK all you Apple folks, now that they have stopped making the plug in iSight, what web cams can I buy that will work on my iMac? I hate the built in cam that it came with, just does not meet my needs. I refuse to pay $300-500 for a used iSight on eBay. Any other firewire web cams out there that are decent?

You can try the Fire-i; or you can go to http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/ and check out the different cameras.

(It's a link to a webpage that makes OS X drivers for non-Apple webcams.)

Thanks Kung! I tried the http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/ , my old cam worked for a day, then stopped and I can't get it to work at all now. So I guess I'll try ordering a Fire-i and see if that works better. I wish Apple would start making the old stand alone iSight. They stopped selling them right at the time I got my iMac.
