Since I'm already in the market for a GoPro, this looks pretty exciting.

Exactly even with the three red lights on different sides and the one touch option I still think its a pain to start and stop when the camera is mounted anywhere other than inside th windshield on the dash which is my least favorite position.

Plus being able to simultaneously start multiple cameras and stream to a smart phone is just bad ass.

Still personally like the form factor of the Contour better, even though I own a GoPro...

As a former Contour owner, as much as I love that aspect of it too, in the end the video and audio quality on the Hero2 are way better.

Wish we had this on our latest video shooting. Darn hero turned off after 15minutes of recording, missing the last 1 minute of important content.

In happy with my Contour. It hasnt let me diwn and having the function of being able to preview without having to buy an extra something or other is really nice.
