Head/bike cams

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-12334486

I bought a cheap one off ebay a while ago to shop people what it was like riding in traffic but after watching what gaps I squeeze through I thought better of it..... and I haven't really caught anyone doing what they shouldn't which is a little disapointing becasue that was part of the reasoning for getting one.

Does anyone else use one?

You watched BBC Breakfast this morning. I know this because I watch you every morning, evening and night. Honestly, trust me, look out of your window when you get home. See that glint in the darkness across the way? That's me, that's the shine of my binoculars, mouthbreathing, member in hand.

Did you hear about the latest smartphone app (game)? Two users hook up with two headcam wearers, one in car (bumper mounted cam) and one on bike. Points are scored for erratic driving and cycling, near misses and Road Rash style conflicts.

#searches for app info

I'm a member of a [car] forum that Adam is involved in, just posted up a thread in there to ask why on earth he felt the need to drag up all the usual bollocks about cyclists and take the debate off topic.

I can imagine I'm in for a major bashing.

anyone got any reccos for a handheld point and shoot HD camera? I've got one of the Flip Ultra's (non HD) but want to upgrade to HD - not sure what the differences are between 2nd gen and 3rd gen on offer - is it better FPS rates? Or just styling updates? Anyone got an alternative from a diff manuf? cheers
