Be there. Even when you're not.

That's the mantra of Xanboo, the manufacturer of a remote monitoring system sold and distributed by telecommunications giant AT&T.

The AT&T Remote Monitor is an easy-to-install system that will let you view live video, monitor doors and windows, control lighting, check on your home's temperature and much more.

The system is linked to Web-enabled Cingular Wireless phones or PCs through a secure site on the Internet. It also uses modules that allow transmission of live video over existing power lines, eliminating the need for special wiring.

With remote monitoring, you can watch your children or pets while you are away from home. Or receive a text alert when your house has an extreme temperature fluctuation or a water leak.

Remote monitor kits start at $99. More details at att.com/remotemonitor and xanboo.com .
