Gorillapod

The gorillapod is a tripod created for people who don't like to carry around large tripods that won't go everywhere they want to go.

"The gorillapod firmly secures your compact digital camera to just about anything...anywhere and everywhere. Unlike traditional tripods, the gorillapod doesn't require an elevated flat surface for you to take the perfect shot."

On top of it's amazing ability to attach to just about anything; at $24.95 it's a bargain for the photographer on the go.
