Withings Smart Baby Monitor drops through FCC’s chimney

Baby monitors. If you’re in the market for one (er, congrats) and you run an Apple-flavored household, then this Withings device looks sufficiently over-specced for your needs. It’s been out in the UK for a couple of months already priced at £269 ($425), and judging from the FCC filing it’s coming to the US too, where it’ll face sibling rivalry from the likes of Samsung, Evoz and the Exmobaby bodysuit. The base station fixes to the side of the crib, hooks up over WiFi or Ethernet, and streams audio and three-megapixel video (with night-vision mode) over the web, so you can access it via the iOS app using 3G or any good internet connection — not only when you’re within range of your router. It’s even said that if you turn the mic’s sensitivity right up, you’ll hear the sounds of your old life, calling to you.
