btw, your spycam - is it wireless ip cam? how much did you get it for?

I'm thinking of installing a wireless ip cam at my main door pointing towards the access corridor.

So that next time, if got people knock on door or press door bell, if I'm upstairs, i don't need to come down to peek thru peekhole, can just use ipad, iphone, or laptop to view to see if it's friends/relatives or salesman...

:P
