I put my husband in charge of this also... he chose a DropCam. It's got some interesting features but I find myself still wanting the traditional video monitor so that I don't have to leave the app on my phone all night long and won't feel nervous using other apps while the baby is sleeping. Little does he know, I plan on still registering for an actual baby video monitor. Worth looking at though if you prefer using your cell phone.
