Sadly, I will continue to support x10, although I wonder where they get the money to blanket the internet with their ads. They have popups on Hotmail, for crying out loud.

X10's products are great. I have no experience with their cameras (how many people are they getting with these ads?), but their other products are fantastic. As far as what you're trying to do, I don't see any other alternative to the xcams.

(by the way, your'e so right about the ads, they seem totally suggestive)
