Good Solution For Softer Flash - Recommended
The "Lumiquest Soft Screen" is a handy gadget that fits over your camer's built in flash to diffuse the flash. This produces pictures that are more evenly lit and avoids the stark results built in flashes often produce.

We take product pictures for our small business using a Pentax K100D and a few painter's lights which, alone, can produce shadows and uneven lighting. The "Soft Screen" allows us to use the camera's built in flash to get nice even lighting over the whole picture. We really don't have room for a large softbox or more expensive lighting, so this option was a good and fairly inexpensive choice.

It works well for our needs! Recommended!

Mixed Results
1) The tab is too big to get in my camera's hot shoe without folding and stuffing it in, or cutting it.
2) Apparently my camera (Cannon powershot pro) disables the built-in flash when something's in the hot shoe - using a pressure switch, so inserting this all the way disables my camera's flash
3) Results are mixed. I didn't get underexposures, but some times didn't seem like it did much diffusing.

Your mileage may vary, but for $10 it might be worth a try.

Good to have on hand.
Really handy, not a good as a real flash with a diffuser but this is in my bag all the time just in case. Worth the money.
