How will the live video streaming work? Will that be through the wifi back pack? If thats the case, would you have to have an internet (and wifi) enabled device on you for that to stream?

had an interesting walk at lunchtime..
Camera Shop A: selling GoPro old models for $299. Doesn’t sell Contour.
Camera Shop B: will be selling GoPro Hero 2 for $399 ETA couple of weeks (old model 299). Contour Roam $299
Camera Shop C: doesn’t sell GoPro. Contour Roam $200
Camera Shop D: will be selling GoPro Hero2 $400, Contour Roam $299. Assistant said Shop B price of $200 was below cost.
Would be a tough call whether pick a GoPro Hero2 for near $400 or a Contour Roam for $200. Is the Hero 2 twice as good? Might be worth waiting to see if the Hero2 price drops a bit.
Can’t see the price budgin for a few months minimum!!!!!!
Contour doesn’t come with a water proof housing either, so it makes the GoPro that little bit more attractive!!!!!!
Contour 5mp, and has a built in battery, so there’s a couple of negatives also!!!!!!
Waterproofing is what sold me on the GoPro. 180 feet, 60 metres - awesome!
hmm you sure that shop C is the Roam model and not the HD?
200 does sound really cheap **edit found US RRP which is 200**
also the roam has waterproof casing now..albeit weak ...only 1 meter
The ContourROAM however is fully submersible ‘up to 1 meter‘ thanks to some new sealed gaskets protecting the camera’s insides

Yeah 1m is more splash proof!!!!!
I would buy the housing if I were even thinkin of takin it into the shower!!!!!!

pretty sure. They had the HD on display and I enquired about the Roam and the sales chick went away to check on the computer and came back with $200. I can re-check if you’re seriously interested.
The video on their website is sick!!
So Mizu.. does this mean you’ll be offloading your superseded technology now??

I’ve just bought a new board, so I better wait a bit or the Boss will slap me around!!!!!! 
Hahaha yeah fair enough 
it only shoots 120 in WVGA…id consider getting one if it shot it in 720p…..tho 48fps at 960p is a good upgrade…...
Earlier this year I had a look at GoPro and end up with water proof camcorder ‘Japan WS5’ because I use at my fishing trips…
Till big shout Hero2 here and seem better feature yeah!! I’ll get one myself next year… 
Silent, I have used my GoPro in the ocean a few times now, and it is excellent in the salt water!!!!!
I’m really annoyed i just purchased a GoPro Hero like 3 weeks ago, I didn’t know they were realising a new one till i got the email from them the other day. Oh well I’m still happy the the Hero
shauno looks like you could still sell it for a reasonable price on eBay.
