Kinda cool if you're into this kind of thing.. I do some roller blading and it might be fun to record a trip..
Price is $130 - not too bad (but you do have do buy a memory card).

Be among the first to try ATC2K, the ultimate self-contained action cam. Weighing in at half a pound (with batteries), this hands-free action cam delivers full color digital video in 640 X 480 VGA at 30 frames per second.

ATC2K works seamlessly with most video editing software. Expandable up to 2GB, with a built-in SD card slot, ATC2K mounts easily on helmets, bikes, race cars, dirt bikes and more. Wipeouts in a white out? No worries, ATC2K is water-resistant. Play hard, record everything!

Nice! I don't do anything that would make this useful, but I do dig *watching* those vids. So if this will help make more, I'm all for it. :D

2GB SD cards are quite cheap these days too - $30 starting: http://tinyurl.com/yzw265

640x480@30fps... hope they have some decent compression, otherwise 2GB doesn't last long :)

About 16 minutes with unexceptional (read: not MPEG4) compression. Not great, but not bad considering the fairly low price of memory and that it's 2x the resolution of the average DV cam a few years back.
