The AS10 is not officially available in the UK.

eBay may be your friend here... May be work contacting the seller (in my link above)?

Bumping an oldish thread... Thinking of picking up an AS10 as my new helmet camera, but it doesn't look like there is a way to mount it flat on top of my head the same as my contourHD 1080p any AS10 users have an opinion on this? I was thinking of using the contour as a rear facing cam if i got the AS10.

I have both, the Sony does not have a rotating lens like the Contour, so cannot be laid flat on top of the helmet(well it can but the image will be on it's side).

Ah Thanks, so how do you have yours mounted?

On the side using the Sony waterproof headband mount, VCT-GM1.
There is another headband mount which holds the camera itself without the need for the waterproof case. BLT-HB1.
