I may be an ass, but I at least try to be a smartass. ;)

In other news I just bought the Z-Ede S1. I'll post back on how it goes once I've had a chance to install and play with it.

I purchased a Z-Edge S1 based on decent reviews, low price, and having many but not all of my desired features. I've used it a couple days now and overall I'm feeling good. Quick thoughts:
  • Installation is easy - 3M adhesive mount, run a USB cable through the headliners, A pillar and into the power port under the glove box. Suction would be nice but I can tolerate the 3M tape.
  • It's fairly low profile from the driver's position, but pretty obvious from the passenger.
  • Battery life is a joke - minutes at most - so stick with the USB.
  • Motion detection and g-sensor are very sensitive, so expect a lot of false positives (aka, videos of people wandering past your car in lots)

Here are a couple videos from my first day in use, and pic of the window fitment.
