They've come down in price a long ways. About $250 or so now with a bunch of stuff. I recently did a MN to Black Hills trip with a bunch of friends and one came off(dirty mounting spot) at about 40-45 mph and just had minor scratches on the case. Camera worked perfectly fine

Best Buy has the Go Pro HD HERO for $239.00 this week... then the MOTO mount is $29.99. Not bad...

Hey, the stop sign had a white border... that means just use caution.

For those interested in getting one you can get the HD Motorsports camera kit on fleabay for around $230 shipped. Got mine for that about a month ago. Though you do then need to buy a SD memory card, I got an 8 gb card for like $15 or something at a local target, probably should have spent a little more for a 16 gb.
FYI prices vary wildly on fleabay, but search for "gopro hd motorsports" sort by price and there are a couple guys selling new in box with buy it now with 10+ available each for $230-$240 shipped
