Couple questions..

What kind of fone are you using? I know my BB and my wife's I-fone are worth much more than my Contour Roam.

What are you using to protect it from road debris?

The Contour has a total profile of about 1 5/8" X 2 1/8" and is a much smaller target than either of my fones.

The Go Pro does offer nicer quality footage, mostly it deals with light/shade changes better but IMO looks really goofy stuck to the side of a helmet. The Contour is much slimmer and still does have some nice footage.

Not trying to down play your thread, I am really impressed with the quality. With a device you already own, there is no cost of the fone AND a camera. I would like to have seen it mounted on a horizontal plane though, for a wider view. I use the contour for everything, family outings, kids at the park ect... and my wife uses her fone the same way so I guess it's what you like.
