How does one get their Trendnet IP100W-N Camera to stream to a Blackberry?

Wanted to be able to view the security camera from my blackberry. Any ideas about how to stream the video from my security camera? As it stands, I can't access it from the Blackberry browser or Opera. The feed uses a java applet which apparently is unsupported by any of the blackberry browsers (though java is supposed to work with Blackberry's).

Thanks in advance.

Answer
I've used these cameras for some time now -- not the N models, but the earlier G and B models.

Anyway, if that Blackberry won't accept the java app that you have to use, then you're going to be stuck just looking at still images and not video.

On my ipod Touch, there is an app called "Live Cams" with provides an interface to the ipod touch to MJPEG video sources like the Trendnet cameras offer (http://livecams-iphone.com/). Perhaps there is a similar application for the Blackberry available.

Also, this web site (http://www.ehow.com/how_2076586_use-java-apps-blackberry.html) suggests that using the WAP web browser on your Blackberry is better than using the Blackberry's internet browser for Java app. Apparently the Java on Blackberry devices is a modified version, so it may still not work with the Java app provided by the IP100W-N.

Is there any CHEAP service out there to SMS you when 2 magnets separate?

I want to know if one specific door is ever opened, but have no need for a full security system. I simply need to know when, if ever, a specific door is opened without an alarm and without a camera. I want to use a system with 2 magnets that's related to an iPhone app. Anything like that out there? Again, 2 simple magnets > when they lose contact, they send a signal to a server that texts me.

Answer
I am not familiar with any service that provides this option as a service.

Here is what you can do. Get a simple alarm system.

Also get one door contact http://www.ebay.com/itm/Brand-New-Honeywell-5816-5816WMWH-Wireless-Door-Window-Transmitter-w-Magnet-/280965035728?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item416ad236d0

When you program the panel, assign your phone number in the download # section. It wont send a text but it will call you and send you a coded tone from your home phone number. You wont understand the tone but you will know that the door has been opened.

You may also want to disable the siren so opening the door is not detected locally.
