All

I'd like to put a webcam over my front door, using Homewatcher to detect
any
movement.  However, I can't find any USB extension cables, so I am assuming
that
USB signals can only travel so far??  If so, does anyone have any other
ideas?
The total cable run is only about 15 metres.

Cheers

Pete

PS Robomow - thought I'd just mention this for all you gadget lovers -
after two
returns, I finally have a working Robomow, (www.robomow.com) and it is
fantastic.  It helps to have a relatively flat lawn, without too many
obstacles
(which I did, as it's a new garden).  It also has 'humorous' sound affects,
though you can disable these :-).
