Me too, the elite version keeps a GPS track of where you've been as well. Less bulky and more streamlined than the Go-pro. Looks good for skiing and cycling as well. Not available till Friday though.

It's quite heavy tho - but definitely more streamlined than GoPro - & I particularly like the waterproof out of the box bit (casing available for greater depths and time) leaving all controls easily accessible and big plus for having a screen.

While there is no denying the GoPro's video capabilities it's clunky shape & design & no inherent waterproofness seem at odds withs its performance and design use.
