Which Monitor: AngelCare (w/sound) or Summer Video .. or Both?

I bought both off of Amazon.  I feel like I should return one of them.  Because it seems kooky to have both .. especially given that DS sleeps in our room and will until he's at least 6 months old.  That said, he goes down before we go to bed so it's not like we're in there all the time that he is sleeping - and even when we are - we are sleeping too (sometimes..when he lets us..)

Could I even use both if I wanted to or wouldn't there be interference?  Or is there a cheaper Angelcare without sound that you can use with another monitor (like the summer video?)  If so I could return the deluxe and get the cheaper Angelcare and then use both.  Hmm...

For the record, I am paranoid .. especially so after the recent incident with the nestie whose baby stopped breathing and was basically saved by the angelcare monitor. 

Thoughts?  Thanks!

i know a lot girls on here swear by the angelcare, but i have the vid monitor you mentioned and i love it.  i can see her breathing any time i look at the monitor (which is often).

I had just a sound monitor before Thanksgiving, then a friend gave me her video, I dont know how I lives w/o a video monitor before. I could see if she was really crying or doing so in her sleep, or all the times she undressed herself with a dirty diaper, or was trying to get out of her crib. And all those times I looked in (she is a stealth room destroyer) and woke her.

I have both!  The Bebe Sounds Movement Monitor and the Summer Video.  Both work great for different purposes.  If you can swing it, why not keep them?   I only say that because I am so super paranoid but these make me feel better.
