Following a break I installed two of these cameras. They are very well what is expected of them: take pictures when they detect movement. Captured images can be sent to a remote server (or not) via FTP and / or email. It is affordable, customizable and adjustable remotely via a web interface and / or iPhone apps and Android.
Only the quality of the images (640 * 480 max) could be a bit better but it is already sufficient to identify a thug.
