worthless is you have VISTA:
I bought one of these at a toys r us going out of business sale 3 or 4 years ago and thought it was a great cheap helmet cam. I suggested it to my girlfriend recently as its great for the money. She picked it up and its not compatible with VISTA! You need an older windows OS for the hardware, not the software, to be compatible!

Needs a little more!!:

Save your money:
If you want to get dark and grainy videos with unsynchronized sound, then by all means go ahead and buy this camera. Even on a bright sunny day the captured footage leaves a lot to be desired. The angle of view is tiny. The resolution is tiny and the frame rate is extremely low. If you are doing any activity that involves a lot of movement (why else would you buy this camera?) you will end up with a very jumpy and confusing video. This camera is promoted as a great bargain, but unfortunately in this... more info
