I am considering buying one of these cameras:

http://www.letsautomate.com/10508.cfm

I wish to use it to monitor a fish tank, I intend to take the output=20
of the receiver and input it to a PC so that I can see it from work=20
etc..

So my questions are:

-Is this a mad idea, e.g. are there better solutions?
-Does anyone have one of these cameras?
-If so what is the quality like?

I have looked into network based cameras, but at =A3150 each this is a=20
bit too much. I have RJ45 ports near the tank if required, but I=20
don't want to put a computer there to run a USB webcam.

Thanks for your help,

Rob
