Can the Touch Pro be used as a webcam?

I was always curious about this? Anybody know?

I seem to recall seeing a program that will turn your TP into a webcam and stream it over the net. Sorry I don't remember the name but it is possible.

Re: Can the Touch Pro be used as a webcam?

There are a few programs....Webcam plus comes to mind...

But it makes a very ineffective camera unless you plan on holding it all the time...

There is really no way other than using some jury rigged car mount or docking station to keep the camera pointed where you want it.

Www.qik.com is what I used. I think it worked pretty good for what you have to work with. I'm in Ohio and my dad was able to see some of my daughters soccer game using it. Something is better than nothing. Try it out.

Qik is the best so far and ppcgeeks has a group too. Just go to Qik.com and check it out. Search for the thread too it will pop up.
