iMind4U, for your peace of mind
iMind4U is a Series 60 application that turns camphones into surveillance devices, primarily for home use. This is an enhanced version of iCamCU that adds motion detection. The price is the same as before (you decide if it's a good price).You need two phones (and SIMs if you use GSM) and the sending phone needs to have a camera (obviously). The other phone needs though only support SMS and MMS, so it could be almost any phone.
That only Series 60 phones are supported is in my opinion a considerable limitation. Hopefully there are plans also for a Java version.

Nokia has a dedicated device with similar functionality called Nokia Remote Camera PT-6.
