iCam is an app for iDevices that will let you monitor webcams from your Device. It works over WiFi, 3G, and EDGE, but I can’t test 3G or EDGE because I don’t have an iPhone. It’s a pretty simple app, and does what it’s supposed to pretty well. To use iCam, you need to download [...] Read more »
As some of you may know, Apple refreshed the Mac mini a few weeks ago. With this refresh, they increased the price to almost $700.
