QuickCam® Pro 9000 by logitech. Pricey, but bloody brilliant.

if you use it a lot and want quality, this is what you want, you should be able to pick this up for just over around £40

Or:

Creative Live! Cam Optia Pro

Logitech QuickCam Communicate STX (if you can find one, an excellent budget cam, EDIT: can be had new for £14.99)

Microsoft LifeCam Show

I have a communicate STX and it's awesome. I picked up a refurb for £10 which does the job well.
