    How many times have you thought, "It's a beautiful day. If only I could capture it using my iPod and my head?" If you're anything like us, the answer is hundreds of times. Now, our yearning has come to fruition thanks to Rampant View. The Rampant View Headcam now accommodates the 5th generation iPod nano. Just pop the nano inside, adjust it for your head (or helmet if you're safety conscious) and start shooting. It looks like a super way to enhance your skate videos. It doesn't look waterproof, so forget the rad kayaking videos, but there are many other fun and hands-free applications we could think of. The Rampant View costs US$34.95 and is shipping now. There's another demo video on the next page; click Read More to view it. [Via Engadget]

    Sure, iPod nano watch straps may be the hot new accessory these days, but the folks at Rampant Gear aren't leaving the 5th generation iPod nano behind just yet -- the company's just introduced its new Ramant View contraption that turns your nano into a head cam. Is it the best head-mounted camera option around? Probably not, but it is cheap at just $35, and it's not very hard to find a deal on a previous-gen nano either if you don't have one already. Head on past the break for couple of sample videos.
