I had this sent to me recently by Dalspec, but haven't seen any mention of it on here yet.

http://gopro.com/hd-hero2-cameras/

They have also released wifi-back remote control (via remote or phone) for this AND the original GoPro HD Hero.
I was gutted that a new camera came out until I saw the new wifi stuff was compatible with it.

I haven't been able to find any raw footage with enough wind to see if they took care of that issue.

Anyone going to upgrade?

I'll be checking out the wifi back - sticking the cam on the front bumper and having phone control (along with a feed into the cabin) is a cool idea.

It also has an input for an external mic which means opportunity for a significant improvement in sound quality.

Anyone found the best place to buy this yet?

Straight from the gopro website including their $85 delivery to Australia works out around $365AUD

Any US websites that offer cheaper shipping?

I will also be either upgrading or adding to my collection. Waiting on prices from my supplier. Should be able to get them delivered for around $300

bah, I always get suckered in and buy the new models when they come out.
I think the 3D hero would be a good laugh...

Ive got the 3D housing, and used it at WTAC. Havent been able to get it to work yet and display it properly in 3D. Need some more time to mess around with the settings.

How are the wind noise on these compared to HD 1, have they improved it in that aspect?
