GoPro Hero Wide Camera Firmware Upgrade to 4GB
I just got an update from GoPro that allows a 4gb (2hours) card instead of just the 2gb its previous firmware limited it to.

Cool - I'll do the email request too then.
BTW - the NiMH batts work much better. I use the Energizer 15 min charger with NiMH AAA's and it works much better. Whats nice is I can get the CVS or Fry's batteries cheaper than the energizer brand and it works just as well.

The CR500 is an acquired taste. If you don't like it, acquire some taste...

I just got back from riding all afternoon, the gopro was on most of the time, took 13 seperate vids, but on the 4gb card that was only 2.16gb and the camera said it was full. Not sure whats up there but it was a good ride. I chaged batteries 1/2 way thru just cuz we were back at the truck.
