I bought an IO Networks Watchport V which is actually a 3Com Home Connect cam. They bought the rights for this camera from 3 Com and are selling them again for $99 plus shipping. You can contact Roxanne Stillman at roxannes@ionetworks.com or 512-306-0939 to order one directly from the her at the company. Saved me a little bit on shipping this way. This company is marketing these cams at the surveillance field and come with a 5 year warranty. They also are rated 1 lux light sensitivity and I believe it. Mine is incredible in a dark room. It makes my room look well lit even where there's no light in here except for my monitor's light. It can see stuff on the wall across the room that I can't with the naked eye. It's that good. http://www.ionetworks.com/products/watchportv.html is the link to this cam at their website and be sure to check out the pdf file with the technical specifications. This company is selling this cam cheaper than when 3Com was selling them. As far as that goes, you can buy one of these cheaper than you can for a new 3 Com off Ebay. Mine has 3Com on the front and an IO Networks sticker on the top. -- Ben Pennington ke4rzi@charter.net "Ben James" <brjames78@hotmail.com> wrote in message news:3dd0d1ac$0$13374$cc9e4d1f@news.dial.pipex.com... > thanks for the advice. has anyone got any good examples of nightime city > views where they know which camera are being used? > > cheers > > > <dkb_2@hotmail.com> wrote in message > news:iv70tuch4atjkt69bdt823o9pcufje4kbu@4ax.com... > > The Logitech webcams are good.
