Just changed my Justissimo for a Vemar Jano Bluetooth at just under £190.  Decent enough helmet & more comfy (I think) than the Justissimo.  Has the built in Inner Sun Shade like the Caberg also.

Worth a look that, the Vemar Jiano was runner-up for the webBikeWorld 2008 Flip-up Motorcycle Helmet of the Year Award with the Schuberth C3 being the winner.

Got mine via the web from a firm in Ireland... sorry can't remember which.  Initially looked for 2 in white, but white's almost impossible to get so settled for one white, one silver.  I'm sure I paid £170 (local dealer was £199).  Interior is better than Caberg & more comfy.  For the money it's worth a look.

Forgot to add, Vemar (Italy) are a major player in Europe & have a well established hold in the USA.  don't be put off by the "budget" price!
