By Lindsay,
I've been playing around with the D-link DCS-930L webcam. For about $150 it allows you to set up an unattended webcam (i.e. doesn't require a PC to use), that you can use to monitor a location, and be able to monitor the camera from anywhere in the world, either on your computer or Iphone.
A great feature is the ability to define areas for motion detection. It will then email you with some still images (usually 3 before the motion was detected, and 3 after).
It doesnt try to be a high end video surveillance system, but if you need to watch something, and want notifications if something moves, then this is a very good and ultra low cost start.
