    ^^^ haha

    well looks good but the market is saturated with action cameras and Go pro is vary popular so unsure if they are going to get the market they want.

    I will be replacing my Go pro 1 with more than likely the next new Go pro out but I will be looking at other cameras. Pretty much only the mounts will work with a new Gp Pro so not like i'm going to miss out much if I do make the choice not to go with another Go pro

    It's all about the mounts and accessories and GoPro have that market pretty much to themselves. It's very hard to get mounts to fit anything other than GoPro, so unless they've got a plan to release a whole raft of accessories then I wouldn't bother myself.

    True, also depends on the quality of the footage
    When i read the article it didn't mention anything about what fps it was shooting in, however they do say the base is magnetic but you pay for what you get at the end of the day

    A bit more information here
