The cube cames with 2.8mm lense is not a terrible fov but i mean maybe because i am used to it already. I have the 2mp annke (hik clones) all over the house and they are fairly good and display a good amount i think.

Well that doesn't explain why, i know the difference between the two and their applications/expectations. Does the narrower fov give better accuracy, quality, etc...?
Why doesn't a small poe prosumer camera with 130/140 fov exist?
In general a narrower field of view will provide better accuracy because the same MP is spread among a smaller field of view width, which in turn provides better accuracy and quality. That is why a 4MP with a 60 degree field of view will be more accurate than a 140 field of view for a respective distance.
The wide angles are greats overview cams, but most prosumer customers are more interested in IDENTIFY than wide angle OBSERVE cameras.

Found this which is not POE but has ethernet (which the consumer ones don't) but no longer available... has 135deg FOV.
Really, I'm looking for a camera to use as a baby monitor with a better FOV, the wireless ones are just not reliable enough.
Doesn't look like this IP3M-HX2 is sold anymore though.
