Who needs to buy a baby monitor when you already have Cisco phones in every room in the house???

If you are wondering how it works:

I can set the phone in the nursery to monitor to any other phone in the house (including the cordless in case I’m outside).  From my phone, it’s one-way so that I can hear nursery sounds (at least our test yesterday indicated that a WE cry even from the far side of the room was clearly audible – nevermind that WE has a wicked set of lungs).

The yet-to-be-tested but promised feature is that when the nursery phone is in ‘baby monitor’ mode – it does not take outside calls (which would be a must!) Now if we can just figure out the video cameras…for those time when I want picture but no sound
