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.

Really? The last time I compared the two, the Contour had significantly better video and audio quality.

If I remember correctly, Car and Driver said the GoPro did a better job with colors and handled side-to-side motion more accurately than the Contour. I could be wrong, though.

Just skimmed over the article. I guess the Hero2 is better then the older GoPro. Guess I wish they would have compared the comparable Contour.

All the videos ive shot with the contour are @ 720hd 60fps vs the 1080hd @30fps. Ive adjusted the mic sensitivity down and feel that the video is pretty damn good and keeps up with the back and forth motion that occurs during autox.
