First Person Recording?

I love Mirror's Edge and the whole parkour scene, So recently I've been inspired by the game to create a Mirror's Edge themed video (And more general parkour videos).

I've done some research and found a pair of fairly cheap Spy-Sunglasses, it has 2GB memory built in, can record 640 x 480 video (480p I think) and only cost £15, but that prices feeds lies to me, And I can see myself ordering these £15 Spy-Camera Glasses and then being dissapointed with them because it's not what it said due to the £15 price tag kinda' thing.

So, I wanted to know where the best place is to get a camcorder that can record in first person, whether it be a pair of recording sunglasses or whatever I'm not too fussed as such as to what form of recording I use but needs to be suitable to fast running and jumping about etc. As long as it can record decent quality video I'm happy. Audio would be a nice added bonus but I think audio is only available on higher priced models, Also I'm not fussed as to any concealment as I'll be using the camcorder for parkour and not spying.

I don't really want to go over £20-ish which is a bit of a barrier as there are very good models of Video Recording Glasses for over this price but I don't have much to spend because I just bought a £600 Gaming PC from PC Specialist :p

Thanks for reading,

Id stay away from the glasses. there more of a gimmik.

They pair I got for a xmas last year were just pants.

I use "Dog Cams " in the front and rear of my car. and there quality and frame rate is awesome.

I think your problem is how to mount them to you more than the product itself. I think the mounting solution will dictate the product.
