My company sells it. It works really well, even with wireless phones (my friend has his house wired with a few and hooked up to his razr). Just be aware, there is a monthly service charge attached to this thing for the service and it's useless without it.

Cant you use the free wm encoder to stream any video source (e.g. a web cam) to wm player?
The only real problem is the ip address being dynamic, but Im sure a static ip address is cheaper than this subscription service.

How creepy
I just figured out how to do this with the windows media encoder and my web cam and although I have a dynamic IP dyndns.org takes care of that little issue.

Remote video
Motorola has a similar product, also offered by CompUSA. It does not require a subscription to forward the images but they are not streaming. In addition to a camera both wire and wireless, the product includes both temperature and water sensors. Aught to be called, House Sitter in a Box. :roll:

It shouldn't. It goes to the main site for me. The link wrapped in the "Mobile Monitor website" text is the same link used in the title of the thread.
