Abstract
An integrated Internet camera system method comprises a website archive and review center (WSARC) for storing and managing images and an Internet direct device for capturing an image, automatically transmitting the image to an account associated with the Internet direct device on the WSARC upon image capture and receiving stored image from the WSARC. The Internet direct device comprises an imaging system, a microprocessor and a display for displaying the captured image and the received image. The Internet direct device automatically connects to the communication network on power-up. The Internet direct device automatically switches to another available mode of connection when the Internet direct device detects that the primary mode of connection to the communications network is unavailable.
