Dashboard Camera?

I just spent about 30 minutes reviewing dashcams on Amazon, but it seems that there are $30 units that can't capture license plate numbers when you are right behind the car... and then there are $250+ units that still get shaky reviews from people who have purchased them.

I'd like a dashcam that I can hardwire so that it is running whenever I am driving and will record to an SD card. It should recycle when the card gets filled and doesn't need to have a display. I basically want to use it to cover my butt or help out someone else if something bad happens. (I witnessed two collisions near me last week!)

Does anyone have any experience with this? Can you recommend a good, reliable dash cam that won't disappoint me for $100-$200?
