PPC uses the ARM processor. It is pretty unlikely that the browser plugin
software that came with your cameras has binaries that work on ARM as
opposed to x86 processors.

If it's the Axis cam's we've gone through this recently on the
newsgroup - they don't work cause they need to install a Java applet
on the device (and only netfront supports Java in any meaningful way)

In addition, the browser applet seems to be set up to require about
1024x768 screen space to be workable. You don't have that, sorry ;-)

HTH

Hi! I have a lot of downtime in class, so I was hoping to download some
free games, but i have no idea how to do that. Can anyone point me in the
right direction? thanks!

Actually, AXIS has a version that runs on the PPC
as a stand-alone app...

http://www.axis.com/products/cam_ace/

Last time I checked, it was $99.00.

So, therefore, I have not played with it, although
there's a (probably limited) demo version available.

O wow that's great ! I stand corrected then - I searched for this
before and there was no indication of a Pocket PC client - cool.

>Last time I checked, it was $99.00.

Ah, that's less cool then. Having a demo available is a help, but $99
for a pocket PC "Viewer" program ?! It might be better to run the
desktop viewer and screen capture the image, then rebroadcast that !

The OP seems to have disappered - no indication if it's actually an
Axis or not (though they're quite common). O well *I* learned
something anyway ;-)
