I am looking for any kind of device which allows remote monitoring of one's home by calling in and listening to a built in microphone. So far I have found a device called Sensaphone Model SC-145. It is available from Fordham-Scope (800-645-9518) for $200 but that is a little bit expensive (my opinion). This device will let you call in and listen on its built in microphone as well as dial up to 8 numbers to report any of 6 conditions that trigger the dialing. I would be satisfied with monitoring only if there is such a beast. Post to the net if you can so that others who might be interested will also read the info. Thanks to all. misha -- NAME: Michael Umansky (sun!aeras!foxy!misha) WORK: Arix Corp.; 821 Fox Lane; San Jose, CA 95131 HOME: 4331 Lincoln Way; San Francisco, CA 94122 PHONE: (408) 922-1751 (work); (415) 564-3921 (home)

If your looking for remote home monitoring, you don't have to look any farther
than the Panasonic KX-T1625 Automatic Telephone Answering System. Don't be
scared off by the long name, it's one of Panasonic's standard phone answering
machines that uses tone remote control (via any touch tone phone), and one
of its features is the ability to listen to your house via its built in mic.
And its costs a whole lot less than $200.00, around $125.00 as I recall.
