Trail Cam Question

Hi, we are looking for a trail cam to put on the property we just bought and were wondering about the cams that offer cellular delivery of pics and/or video to your phone or an email account. We would like one we could also call into and get a real time photo/video download as well. I know they are expensive and I would like one that is solar powered as well with battery backup. I have found several on line but they require a sim card from your chosen cellular provider.

My questions are, has anyone had any experience with one of these and if so how easy it it to get set up with a cell provider, who did you use, how well did it work for sending the pics/video and how well did it work "real time" calling in.

Any insights or info is greatly appreciated.

I would think it would use a data connection and not neccessarily a call in to it from your phone. I have not ever dealt with a cellular connected camera but I would not think it would be any different than a typical ip camera setup.
Please post what you end up going with and what the setup was like.
