I hope everyone can see the connection to this topic I intend to make with this post. I recently purchased this item at Costco for a very, very low $99. Samsung Smartcam, a simple stand alone IP camera. The night vision is fantastic and it will send you an alert upon a audio event and a motion event. Room over heats and temp alarm (please have one set up in your room) goes off, thermostats malfunction/overheat and alarm goes off. Alarm goes off and camera sends you an audio triggered alert.

One word of warning is that reviews are iffy when set up on wireless. Some claim no issues, some claim trouble. I have mine set up hardwired so no problems at all. A lot less inexpensive that a full blown DVR set up and a very small footprint. The $99 is a sale that ends on Sept 27th. They seem to be temporarily out of them online but may be available in store (as they are in my local Costco)
