Streaming video?

I was wondering if anyone knew whether it was possible by any means to display webcam output on the x50v. I have a 'static' webcam linked by USB cable to my PC, and a Linksys WiFi router - what software would I need installed on my Axim, and how would I set it up, to remotely view webcam pictures on my PDA when in another room? Is it possible?? Thanks in advance.

MS Portrait might help you. I havent tried yet.... but it seems it can do that.
check: http://research.microsoft.com/~jiangli/portrait/

In the last item it states:
* If you have a PC with a camera and a Pocket PC, you can use them to constitute a surveillance system. You can call your PC in your home or office using your Pocket PC anytime on the road.

If you have a 802.11b wireless network, try using Microsoft Media Encoder 9

Works great if you have a TV tuner card in your PC too! (Just not at the same time! :)
