SC-X210WL

About a month ago, Samsung released the SC-X210L which was billed as a sports camera that could record you in action while bungee jumping or skiing, so that you can show off your conquests to everybody. This one comes with a remote lens unit that could record those ''helmet cam" moments, Fear Factor style. The only problem is that the remote lens had to be connected via USB cable to the cam, so recording yourself while rock climbing is gonna be more challenging with the cable always smacked right in your face.

Samsung became well aware with that problem and has now released the SC-X210WL, an upgraded version where the lens went wireless. It has a 15-foot range so you still need to stay close to your man, but you need not worry about the cord being stuck to the harness or something. It works via tried-and-tested RF technology, keeping the bandwidth high enough for video and the power consumption low enough to actually be useful. This one will be available in September and the 1GB model costs $679, if 1GB is too small for you, you could always make use of its SD card slot.
