Like there are more and more GPS and GPS tracking devices out there, helmet cams are becoming plentiful as well. Having a camera mounted on your helmet or motorcycle is no longer the exclusive domain for professional riders being taped for TV. Twenty20 are selling a helmet camera that is not only very small, but seems to do the trick.
The camera weights 10 oz, so no burden for your helmet, and if you mount it on your motorcycle with the optional mount, you'll not even notice it.
The Twenty20 is powered by a separate 9V battery, and will last up to 16 hours. You can also buy loads of extra gadgets for it, like wide angle lenses.
The camera does not record. To record your epic motorcycle ride, you'll need to strap a VCR to your back  . Or, buy yourself one of the fancy hard drive recorders, like those from Archos, unless you want to bring along a camcorder (which kind-of offsets the whole idea of something small and portable).
It's a pity that there's no a helmet camera that also records for a short time, not having to bring along a series of equipment, batteries and wires. The first one on the market with such a small device will probably get a lion share of the market.
Price: $249.99
