Just thought I'd post up this info and see if anyone else happened to pick up one of these units at ALDI last Saturday (17th December).
Here's the info page:

It's specifications include the ability to take HD Video in AVI Motion format, 1280 x 720 (30fps) in either Fine, Standard and Economy mode. It has a 120 deg wide angle lens.
It's also waterproof to 30 metres, can double up as a Security camera with motion detect, a 5MP camera for stills, and a webcam.
Highlights
Specially made for outdoor enthusiast to capture all the action of outdoor and sports activities
4 White light LED and 4 infrared LED for night mode
Rechargeable build-in battery
Water proof up to 30 meters
Including
2 GB micro SD memory card with SD card adaptor
USB AC adaptor / charger
Bicycle holder and fastening ribbon
USB and video cable
You can put a 32Gb MiniSD card in (Grade 6 for high speed video and audio) and record 20 minutes in HD.
Comes with audio/video lead for viewing directly to TV or a USB (which doubles up with a wall connector to charge the onboard lithiumION rechargeable battery) cable to connect to your PC.
There's also a handlebar mount (that could be made to fit inside a racecar mounted on a small tube welded to the rollcage) and a strap for either helmet or wrist when riding your bike or diving.
I've been testing it all morning (after I charged it - 3 hours) in the office but will test its capabailities driving home this afternoon.
My inital impression is that it takes a little while to get used to the buttons on the unit (On/Off, Record and LED Night light) and it sometimes doesn't register on the PC with the USB cable if you connect in the wrong order (USB is fussy like that). But generally the quality is excellent in either 320 or 640 modes. You can also date/time stamp your photos or videos. Package includes a PC CD for loading drivers for webcam and Security option but nothing for MAC users.

I'll put up my demo video tomorrow.
