Thanks. So far, I've got five X10 cameras and other X10 stuff. Except for
the annoying ads, they are great. I have their e-mail filtered into an X-10
mailbox and delete it. Once in a while, they have a good special, tho. I
also use two wiress phones and can still hear UO-11 beacon on 2.4ghz.

In my case, the cam is too far to bother the 802-11b network, but the hub
really messes the picture.
I agree with the obnoxious ads, but they have never spammed me, and they
have good prices and good service. Everything I ever bought from X10 (and I
have a lot of stuff), still works, except for a couple of light modules
that did not survive a lightning strike in 1994 (can't blame X10, I had
$7,000 of damage in the house, the ham gear was unplugged and had no damage)
