This look great. And for the price I don't think you can go wrong. I love the fact that you can controll the camera remotely from iOS.

Look forward hearing a review.

The camera just as it sits can go under water proof down to 10 feet after that you will need to purchase a case for deeper water. It comes with a Dust cover for the front of it but does not require it for filming. After speaking with liquid image they explained that the battery is a built in battery that is non removable, The battery itself will last longer then the life time of the camera. If there are any issues Liquid image would replace the battery. They are also coming out in a few months with an extended battery pack but right now the battery is 2.5 to 3 hours of film time, most people getting 2.5 hours.

Those are the terrible Herbst boys. They do this crazy racing where they tow water skiers at like 100mph +. I will look for another vid showing how gnarly it is.

I am interested in these cameras for lots of reasons. The wifi thing is intriguing.
