Samsung intros 22-inch LCD with webcam

Samsung on Tuesday afternoon upgraded its SyncMaster LCDs with the 225UW, an enhanced version of its recent 22-inch LCD. The updated design is built for video conferencing with a 2-megapixel webcam integrated at the top as well as dual microphones that help cancel out background noise. Samsung also promises a two-port USB hub for peripherals and the choice of either DVI or VGA for the display signal. As with recent 22-inch displays, the 225UW boasts a 700:1 contrast ratio and a quick 5ms pixel response for gaming and movies. Pricing and availability for the new display haven't been announced by Samsung, which is aiming today's announcement at the US market.

I wonder if Apple patented the idea of a webcam integrated at the top of a monitor. The way patent claims are going, it could be accepted.
