Aldi HD Action Camcorder?

[beatlejuice]

Aldi are selling an D 1280 x 720 (720p/25fps) helmet mounted camcorder on the 5 December. Would anyone like to speculate whether it will be any good for us commuters? Linky

Long term battery life might be an issue ?
BTW, if you retain the packaging and receipt Aldi do offer a 30 day refund

Where is Magnatom (formally of this parish) when you need him? Could someone who knows him please invite him to offer an opinion on this camera please?

Maybe Gaz could help? He's a man who knows about such things. The main question for commuters is, will it pick up number plate up when its dark, p*ssing down with rain, you're on the way home from a 12hr shift and some numby has not respected your right to be a functioning human being?
