I'm not a fan of GoPro either. Admittedly I only had the White, but the thing was ridiculously picky about memory cards - I have about a dozen and all of them work fine in every other device, but when I had the GoPro, only 2 of them worked at all. There were several firmware bugs that were clearly bugs, not me doing something wrong, and I could repeat them. Whenever I called GoPro they were super snotty, and blamed anything that was wrong with the camera on me using cheap cards. However, even after going out and buying a SanDisk Ultra, which is what they recommend, I had the same problems.

I just sold the thing and bought the SVC200. As aidzbelty says, low light performance is kind of grainy, but apart from that I really like the cam. None of the cams I've owned do well in the low light anyway. I may try a mobius at some point, they do seem to be amazing cams for the money.
