Just saw that this morning. The Polaroid cam was the first thing that jumped into my mind....... I'll probably still end up getting one. LOL

Real advantages I can see is the size and the fact that you don't need a case to keep it water proof. Hope you can get replacement remotes for it. Hate to lose the remote and then have a $400 paper weight.

Although it seems nice, I don't think it's worth getting. For the same price you could get a hero 3+ black edition with much better quality video and other features that this tiny cube doesn't have.

Only real benefit I could see is its size. Otherwise, this is just another GoPro consumer product that the company wants us to spend our $$ on (Isn't that what every company strives for?). They need to slow down and build on what they already have. More doesn't always mean better :thumbup:
