Just a note: The Gripper models from Filmtools are on sale in January.

The price they have now is the same price I paid in august of last year. For some reason Filmtools' site always says (insert current month here) Sale price $XX.XX, but the price stays the same. I think they just use that to encourage impulse buying. When I saw that a few months back, I remember thinking that I should buy it "RIGHT NOW" under the impression that the price would go up in a month.
 
I've used the Stickypod and I can say that it works great! I haven't used it yet at any sort of high speed (over 40mph), mostly because I'm worried about bug splats and not it falling off. If you're worried about it holding (like I was at first) then start by mounting it on the inside passenger window, you can point it through the windshield or towards the driver.

Ahh... thanks for the info AC! Tricky bastards.

haha... but seriously I love filmtools. They ALWAYS ship the same day I order. No BS rush charges like some of the other retailers.
 
I have the sticky pod pro pack. I only used my palmcorder with it since I don’t have my dvx yet (another week or two) but I took it to 90 MPH... Worked and held great.

I also have a roof rack on my car and ill going to build a mount that the camera can mount to on a fluid head, so someone could drive and someone could be standing out the sunroof controlling the camera, this would only work for slow speeds though.
