They also do cheaper models which aren't wireless etc. They have pan and
tilt and built in web server.

Subject: [ukha_d] [OT] - Video Messaging
I'd like to set up a webcam link within the family and just trying to
figure out the best approach.
The rest of the family have a mix of AOL services and more regular
ISP (in my case we are NTL Cable so not going AOL!). I know AOL has
a video messaging service built in and you can get microsoft
messenger. So to my questions:
- If I use Microsoft messenger (i.e. load up the software) do I also
have to sign up for MSN messenger service to make it work? (Not
blindingly obvious from the Microsoft site!)
- Can AOL messenger interoperate with Microsoft?
- Is there a better way altogether of achieving this (remembering
that we only want to connect to 2-3 other family members but only one
at a time)?
- Finally, and to get it back on topic, can such services be used to
connect to other cameras (such as my front door) for remote
monitoring?
Thanks
Richard
