Use your PDA or Smartphone as a webcam

WebCamera PlusEver wish you had a little webcam that you could stick in your pocket to use for video conferences, web chats and spying purposes at a moment's notice? No? Yeah, umm... me neither.

But if you've got a Windows Mobile PDA or Smartphone with an integrated camera, all you need is some software from Ateksoft and $15, and you've got an instant webcam.

WebCameraPlus works through any internet connection, USB Activesync, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPRS, 3G, or LAN. It's reportedly compatible with most "modern" Windows Mobile device. I assume that means WM2003 and up.

The software works with Skype, MSN Messenger, Yahoo Messenger, Virtual Dub and other programs designed to take advantage of web cams. You can also use the software to grab screenshots from your PDA and transfer them to your PC.
