Although the GoPro 2 was so good I'm in no rush to upgrade.  :grin:

I like the shallow depth and compactness of the GoPros but I can see advantages of the Sony units.  What the heck... one of each  :bounce:

None of the Gopro official site pages load for me right now so I suspect there might be an issue with their site?  I can't try in a different browser as I'm at work.

To compensate, here is a vid of the Sony Action Cam at work:

Don't bother.  The site seems to be dead.  Thought I'd checked it yesterday and was OK.

Stop teasing.  You know if ya keep it up I'll go buy one. :kickass:
