The new Panasonic BL-MS103A looks promising (but it costs nearly a =
grand.)

Comes with 3 color cameras (up to 8 can be installed), Wireless Camera =
Monitoring System and remote. Images can be recorded on a SD memory =
card. Can view *and control* cameras by web browser or a compatible cell =
phone (most are) which means you can check from anywhere, with or =
without a laptop. Cameras are wireless. Has "Automatic Network =
Configuration" (yea, sure, you betcha).

Here's one source: =

I think your idea is great. I actually wanted to extend it a bit but that
is
another story. Two questions...

Do you have electric service at the site yet or does this system have to
run without service ?

What kind of connectivity do you have ? Phone ?
DSL ? Cable ? Satellite ?

Regarding the camera it is pretty simple to choose one. You just have
to answer a few questions :

- What resolution do you need
- What range do you need
- Will you be viewing at night
- Will the camera be stationary or will it be movable
- Do you need to remotely control the camera
