Mini Camera

When UPS came to the office today I saw that someone had returned a Digital Mini-Cam accessory for the Archos AV500. I wouldn't have noticed it except for the picture on the box of a guy in a bicycle helmet with a borg-like attachment attached to the side. I asked why it was returned and was told that the customer simply hadn't been happy with the quality. I decided that this would be the perfect type of product for me to review. It comes with an adjustable headband that holds the camera and an inline remote control that lets you record just by pressing a button. I think there is a microphone somewhere too.

We sell lots of the Archos AV500 units and accessories but I have never actually used one. I think it could be cool for filming bike trails and such. I'll be getting a 100GB AV500 unit in for me to test with the camera in a couple days. I'll check it out and if I like it I'll even post some video clips. Another cool thing about this AV500 is that it can hold tons of videos and pictures. I may even mount it to my trike and hook it up as my sound system instead of the cell phone.
