 Yes there is the addition of an ethernet interface,
but there is the absence of:
LCD screen
Battery
Flash
Human interface software and buttons/switches
Large amounts of storage/memory
Decent zoom lens (at least the IP cams I have seen have nothing
equivalent to even the cheapest of snapshot cameras)
