Default On bike camera - any good?

I saw this in Maplins and wondered if its any good for the SV as I dont fancy putting my dv cam onboard. Or will I be the product tester?

The gadget show do sell one it's on their website www.cpc.co.uk part of the Farnell group. Its not quite the same camera, as far as I know. Looks like the Gadget show one is ATC3K but the Maplin one is ATC2K.

Youtube looks like its ok for the price but not great images coming through. But its a fun thing and expendable see the test here http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=_O_buISlFQE

They've had lots of mixed reviews on here. SOmetimes the footage is like you're at sea.

Have a look around and I'm sure youll find some.

ive got one, really simple to use. the quality is ok, not as good as the more expensive setups but its all in one so nice and easy. the reason some go like your at sea is because of vibration. I have a strip of laminate flooring underlay under the mount on mine and its fine. the sound is improved by removing the water proof seal which is easy to do.
