Sometimes you just want a drop-dead simple-to-install wireless cam to keep an eye on baby, or the backyard, or some crucial area of your domicile. We get that and we feel the new Dropcam Wifi video camera really fits that need perfectly. Dropcam promises a sub-minute setup time, HD video quality (720p) and a wide angle lens, so you’ll be up and monitoring your household in no time. Watching your stream is a snap too, with both iOS and Android apps to keep you in the loop when you’re on-the-go. Dropcam also lets you turn on and off the camera depending on your location, operate the zoom remotely, set activity alerts, listen (and talk back!) with 2-way audio, and keep an eye on things even when the sun dips beneath the horizon with automatic infrared LEDs. Dropcam also features tight security courtesy of its SSL encryption, so no more free shows for your nosy neighbors. Dropcam retails for $149.
