This thing is cool!
Just did 3 quick 3 clips with the camera mounted on a 700rwhp Z06... the thing I like most is how easy it is to setup and use.
I have a 'pro/director' style heavy camcorder vehicle mount and it's awesome but is a little time consuming to setup for my HD camcorder. With this thing it's just stick, click, and go!
Here's a quick video with no editing except speeding it up (6x).

Clip 1 - Mounted on the drivers' side rear bumper, driving through wet fog on my way to work; video
Clip 2 - Mounted center 'high' on the windshield, quick drive around town at lunchtime; video
Clip 3 - Photo-every-2-seconds mode, then combined into stop-motion video (clips @ .125 seconds each)
The sound is messed up in this sped up version of the 1st two clips, but sounds fine at 'real' speed - so next time I'll add some music to all the clips like I did on the last clip...
I also didn't play with the low vs. high sensitivity settings for the audio either - this was truly plug-n-play experiment.

Looks like a great product! Is it really limited to a 2GB card or can it utilize a 4GB (or higher) card?? I myself use a laptop and a webcam mounted to the interior roof, but it is somewhat of a hassle. Not quite as bad as setting up a pro HD camera though!

I emailed them about the firmware upgrade to allow it to take bigger cards, but the 2gb is enough for 56 min of video and 1900 pics :-)

It's not great in low light, nor does it handle turning into the sun very well. But the frame rate, resolution and saturation is awesome, I think for such a tiny and easy to use package.
My wish list would be for a remote start feature.

Thanks. I'm only asking because if I can use this to make time-lapse videos of my travels it would be a lot more convenient than having a laptop plugged in for 4-5 hours...
