[QUOTE="James, post: 52073, member: 2"] Killer? No. Competitor? Sort of. I saw these goggles in a trade show video awhile back and that was also the first thing I thought (GoPro/Contour killer) That's until I stopped and actually thought about it. IMO one of the reasons that the GoPro is so popular is the fact that it has so many mounting options available (and their advertising blitz). With the goggles you're only limited to the front "goggle view", plus you can only use that camera in sports that use goggles (motocross, snowboarding, etc). I don't see the surfers, auto racing, skateboarding, BMX, etc. guys using this. :noidea: Also with it being $250 I'd rather spend the extra $50 and just get the GoPro. :thinking: Those snow goggles would be kind of nice for a stealthy snowboarding camera though. [B]Edit:[/B] I did notice a surf and motorsports camera marked as coming soon, wonder what those will look like? [/QUOTE]
