What is the best home security system for a renter? Wireless? Do you have to have a phone line?

I need a cost effective burglar alarm system. I rent so I need something I can take with me when I leave. Do I need a monitoring service? Can you have a wireless system with no phone line? Is it better to buy a DIY system online and then purchase monitoring separately?

Security System Question- 10 points to first good responce!?
At my parents I need a alarm system on my bedroom. I would need it to be wireless, easy to install, and under $50. It can be used
I would rather it not be one of those 4 number keypads. Thanks!
I need 1 door sensor, 2 window sensor, and a motion detector would be nice.
PLEASE HELP!!
Additional Details
I dont want those cheap ones with the little on/off switch!
Are wireless outdoor monitoring systems any better than wired ones? Distance from camera to TV is 200 feet?

I want to monitor the front and back of my house by installing a remote CCTV camera system. The distance from the cameras to the monitor would be at least 200 feet. I am tempted to buy the wireless system but I am not quite sure how good they are compared to the wired ones. Its a 2400 sq. ft. two storied house. Also at what height the camera should be located to get a good over-all view of the activity in the area?
Any suggestions and/or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Anyone have any recommendations for self-fitting wireless home alarm systems?

Anyone fitted / used one before? They seem cheaper than getting someone to fit one, but are they any good? Or are they too complicated for the average person? I’ve seen Yale ones being sold in the shops but don’t know how well it would work.
