    I like a secure household. I like to back up my seismics with a perimeter of screamers and I like to keep a webcam trained on my front door. One problem, however, has been viewing my perimeter remotely with my iPhone. It is a problem no more.

    Dropcam, makers of $199 wireless webcams, have released an updated iPhone app that let’s you add cameras to your system with a minimum of fuss and muss. Each camera pops up on the app as its started and you can view images over Wi-Fi and 3G anywhere in the world.

    The App is free and each camera costs $199.

    I personally use Vitamin D for my home surveillance but this looks like a good solution for folks on the run from slamhounds.
