Can Clie PEG TJ37 run SpyCam?

Archived from groups: comp.sys.palmtops (More info?)

I want to refer my message to an old posting (see below)
Before I buy the TJ37 I just want to know whether anyone has used TJ37
with SpyCam as webcam.
I found some discussions in cliesource. I'm a bit confused with SpyCam and
SpyStillCam. As far as I understand, SpyCam doesn't use WiFi, but
SpyStillCam, right?

What maximal frame rate have you tried on a TJ37?

thanks

You can certainly use the TH55 as a wireless webcam - I have done it.
you need Spycam and Spygrab installed on PC and Clie.

A search on www.cliesource.com forums will have more info.
