GoPro Hero Digital Camera

What it is: A shockproof, waterproof and lightweight digital camera made just for the extreme or water sports enthusiast.

Why we love it: No more floppy waterproof cameras on elastic bands. The Digital Hero has a comfortable neoprene wrist strap that keeps the camera secured flat during your activity. When you're ready to take a picture, just pivot the camera upright. The camera weighs only 3 ounces and is so light that you will literally forget you have it on. Waterproof and functional to 30' deep, it runs on a single AAA battery and has 32MB of on board memory that can store 260-360 640x480 resolution photos (depending on scene complexity) and/or 32 ten-second silent video clips.

Who we'd give it to: Adventurous and outdoorsy types like kayakers, snowboarders, and other extreme sports enthusiasts.

Where to get it: From Amazon.com for a sporty $79.99.
