    I cannot comment on the quality of video, file transfer etc. as the bike mount snapped off after a few hours of riding and the camera was lost to the mountain . Poor quality plastic or design I assume.

    I have to go to the store and got 10MB memory card, it gave me an error, I called support they said it will only work with 5 MB. Im very disappointed, I totally lost my interest. I need to go to BB again to get the right memory card, which was not in my plans.
