Hidden camera installation?

Hi,

I'm looking at setting up some hidden cameras to monitor my nanny and other
people that may be in my house when I am not around. I am completely new to
this concept (my wife is insisting on the hidden cams), so I am looking for
any advice or suggestions where to find more information about it. Any
searches I do online seem to point me to the commercial sites selling hidden
nanny cams (ie: the stuff hidden in smoke detectors, or in alarm clocks,
etc). Is there no way to find/buy some pinhole cameras and wire them up to
a PC to record any movement in the room? I'm rewiring a few rooms, and I'm
not even sure what/how to wire for them. Is just Cat5 good enough? Do I
need to provide for some type of power, etc?

Any advice, suggestions, or links to where I can find more information about
hidden cameras for the home (not the kind hidden in smoke detectors, but the
kind I could hide myself in door frames, bookshelves, etc) would be greatly
appreciated!

Thanks,

Eric

Those websites with the covert cameras also carry pinhole and
miniature cameras.
