The mini CD could not be read by the computer that has a laptop type tray (clip in the CD), however on my other PC with an 'old fashioned' drop in tray it worked fine.
I bought a Muvi sportspack, however all the clips and the skin already come with this camera. The Muvi clips are 0.5mm or so smaller and do not fit, so only the additional straps and the screw-down foot in the Muvi pack are useful. Unless you need a velcro arm strap or a pouch, you could save yourself a fiver.

I got one of these for £15 (free delivery) on Ebay. In the box you get a few straps and clips, a CD, a mains plug with a USB socket (handy!), and a USB cable and the instructions. You don't get a memory card but 2GB would be too small anyway. 8GB will do you about 70 mins (NOT 7 hours and some people claim) of video. HOWEVER one main flaw with this product is that the memory card has to be FAT32 format which means the max file size on the card is 4GB, so when you go over than 40mins or so, you're screwed. I will test it out to see if it automatically creates a new file after it hits 4GB.
On the good side the picture quality is excellent and the sound is good, though it can get a bit hot while in use.
Battery life 1-2 hours. Probably closer to 1.
For £15 it really is worth it, it's not exactly HD but for this price you should get one!!

This is a chinese state-of-the-art product and you get what you pay for.
Before buying you might search the net. Try search tags like MD80, 808, YSB-001, SunPlus ... it's the same chip-set history!
I ordered two Black models ... I got two in Red. I expected 2GB MicroSD, but I didn't read the disclaimer. There are NO MicroSD with this product. It's unusable on delivery!
It is VERY difficult to determine weather or not the record mode is on or off. The red LED is safely secured inside the plastic casing. If the sun is up it is pure guess!
Furthermore: Do NOT expect any user manual! You'll have to experiment with the three available buttons. The text on the casing is the worst I've ever seen in the world of Google translate! (and the CD is not readable)
