One other thing, I am nothing to do with the makers, on re Reading my post it sounds like a blatent advert, I just found it during the day today as I'm on Holiday from 7:30 am today (that's about 7 hours time) and desperatly needed something that worked before I went. Not sure if I'll buy the full version unless I can find a way around the Remote PTZ issue, any ideas from anyone would be great. The PTZ interface supplied with the software seems to be only for the IP based cameras which may well suit some people, but not me.

Hi new here but came across your post, I too needed to have remote access to my camera whilst on holiday, I was using the old pico thing on a cheap eBay card. Didn't have to be great quality just see who was around if my alarm went off as it rings my phone. On searching I found a brilliant cheap application that allows you to watch your camaras live feed as well as play back recording on the iPhone. It has a 21 day trial too. My only complaint is that my 2 cameras use the pelco d protocol via the com port and the software does not cater for this so although I can veiw them, I can't use the PTZ. The software is called i-catcher and is made by icode.co.uk, their website has loads of dead links but don't be put off, one thing I discovered was that when viewing on your iPhone you have to tick the javascript box and not leave it defaulted on java else you don't get an image Hope this is of some help
