Those all were questions I was dealing with and wanted to find out. So instead of sitting back I started a simple project to actually see it myself. I put a small camera in a box, build a timer circuit using Arduino and shipped it.
We recently mentioned this video and project on our podcast and so now it can see it for yourself!

While the video is playing, you can pan around the view just as you would when using Google Street View in its conventional mode.
