Re: IP camera recommendation

[Peter + Jane <pandj.munnoch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is getting tricky.
2 Foscam suppliers have now said yes to iPhone but no to iPad.
Isn't the IP camera essentially a website?
What is the difference between iPhone and iPad in accessing a website?
If an app is involved, must this be camera specific or are there generics?
Appreciate input from anyone on the list who
accesses and controls an IP camera from an iPad (ideally and iPhone)
Thanks
Peter
