Dear Aunt TUAW: Help me monitor security video from my iPhone

I already have a computer set up and running my webcams to watch my home while i'm away at work. I use GotoCamera's software. I can login and watch my cameras on my Iphone. I currently have 3 cameras connected to the computer at home. Easy to set up and simple to use, really. Costs less than $4 a month. here's the link if you wish to check it out - http://gotocamera.com

I'm using the Synology solution which does support multiple cameras. A special IOS app allows reviewing the live images as well as historical ones. Currently trying to integrate the setup with a more conventional solution like the Jablotron alarmsystem. But that's still quite a challenge.

Can you help me find a note taking app for the iPad?

I'm a student and really want to see if this is possible. The app should have audio recording, PDF annotation, preferably a writing guard/hand rest, preferably a place to write (like a bigger box to use with my finger if I forgot my stylus), sync with dropbox or evermore or similar, allow custom pages ( like for music or graph or lined-paper), import/export to PDF or email or word documents, add pictures and/or other objects, and finally type as well as handwrite notes. Oh, and shape recognition would be great too (for drawing graphs or something like that). Price is not important, if the app can get all of this done, then the debs deserve every penny.

Thanks,
Mike

Doesn't all the Logitech stuff require Windows for the master camera setup? I've looked at their stuff before but never bought since they don't seem to have software for OSX. for setup.

And btw Paulette, Live Cams Pro ( with an S ) is actually pretty good. Especially now that they support the popular Foscam range fully ( image settings + sound ). They also have a reversed pan protocol for my PTZ cam.
And they are, even with the in app purchase, a ton cheaper than my uNetCam. I had their "normal" version that didn't rock my chair. But the updated Pro version .... Good Choice !

Wow, we have some havy weapons here with those sales rep around the comments bar !
Yes, J Penfold, I'm looking at you .....

I also highly recommend the Mobotix Cameras. The best model in my opinion is the Mobotix Q24 which gives not only 3 megapixel recording, but the ability to see 360 degrees in a room or outside. The article mentions some of the other solutions limitations due to bandwidth and the Mobotix adresses most of these issues. It does this by providing high resolution recording to the internal memory or a network hard drive, while at the same time providing a lower resolution stream for live view. Combine this with free software, VOIP,and and very extensible feature set, make a great camera for home or business use. If you are more concerned with entrance access, you can get the same features in a Door station camera but then the view is limited to 180 degrees. If interested you can learn more at http://www.mobotixsecurity.com or voipmodo.com to have a product rep provide a solution for your setup

I use the AXIS cameras M1011 (wired only) or M1011-W (Wifi) which are extremely easy to configure and with remarkable image quality, then I use the iPhone/iPad apps LiveCam or LiveCam Pro (which work with a whole range of IP camera makes). Extremely effective.

I use a Y-Cam and can log in directly from any Apple device no problem. It also emails me alerts when any movement is triggered.

Worth to mention AirBeam: http://appologics.com/airbeam.
With this iOS app you can use any number of iPhones, iPods and iPads on a WiFi network either as security cameras or as a monitors. Video quality is really good - a lot better than Facetime. Demo video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctlktk_BNNg.
