If you have a Mac and use the built in cam you know how annoying it can be to change angles and get the cam in the position you want it. Enter Ecamm’s BT-1 it is a new wireless webcam solution for Mac that runs around $150. The idea and concept are great, a wireless bluetooth webcam that you can place just about anywhere within 30 feet of your MAC and can stream live video and audio to your computer and onto the web.

Features:

• 640×480 H.264 video and 48 kHz AAC stereo audio
• Compact 2″ x 2½” x 5/8″ design
• 4 hour talk time
• Wireless range of 10-30 feet
• Compatible with iChat, Skype and more
• Standard tripod mounting screw

I have not tested this product but as with most other wireless cams their biggest drawback is delay due to the data being transmitted by wireless. Bluetooth technically can transfer data at a gross rate of 1mbit/sec so it should be able to handle a video stream with no problem. Also your time on cam is restricted by the battery life of the wireless cam, the current “talk time” is 4 hours. When your relying on a webcam to support yourself having a choppy feed or a battery dieing can cause you to lose money.

This product is not available for purchase yet, but can be pre-ordered, it is shipping in March.
