Hello

I appreciate if anyone can help me.

I want to have a camera (preferable wireless) in my house that is recording while I am not home (like surveillance) also I need to send live through the internet where I can check the video online.
I know that for PC users there are a lot of stuff you can use, but I own a MAC which software can do this as well as what hardware can I use for this?

thanks for any help.

Juan

iChat's cool and all, but it doesn't provide either recording or functionality when no one's at the computer.

Sounds good, but what if will connect several cameras (wireless) how do I connect multiple cameras to the same computer (my iMac) will I need kind of a hub? what is the name of it? Will it connect via firewire, USB?
Remember that imac doesn`t have VGA connection... :(

thanks
