Re: GoPro Hero 2 has been released
UPS just dropped off my GoPro! I've been doing quite a bit of research and finally pulled the trigger. My first impression is Small and Great Quality! Even the retail packaging is top notch. Unfortunately I'm still waiting on the SD card, so I can't use it yet. I look forward to making some cool videos! I'll write something up in the next few days.

Mine is on the way, I can't wait to use something other than my phone for my videos.

I haven't had the chance to get mine out in the snow yet, but here is a short test vid I did on the freeway the other day. 1080p 127* POV. Uploaded straight to youtube without any editing.

5 min mount for the Gopro (resized the picture just for you)
Re: GoPro Hero 2 has been released
Sweet! You'll probably want some Rain-X on there. I haven't bought any yet. I guess there are some fogging issues, so we'll have to keep an eye on it.
I'm going to try and piece together my chest mount tonight.
