You forgot "Less space than a Nomad. Lame."

For anyone that didn't get the joke - this is what a popular and now famous Slashdot comment said about the iPod when it was released.

It wasn't a comment, it was CmdrTaco's reaction in the blurb: http://slashdot.org/story/21026

$99? That's well in to "shut up and take my money!" territory. I've long wanted to buy a GoPro for the occasional kayaking / climbing / skiing footage but there was no way I could justify the price tag. $99 (+$40 waterproof kit) really changes the equation for casual shooters like myself.

Walmart has a GoPro kit right now for $50.

Vivitar DVR 787HD 12.1MP Action Full HD Camcorder with Universal Car Kit, Surf Kit and Waterproof Kit.

The Polaroid Cube is more compact which might make it much more useful -- but just so you know there are options under $99, even.

That's not a GoPro. Or are you saying the Vivitar mounts fit GoPro?

Where did you get the $99 figure from? I looked all over the page and couldn't find it. Not bad at all for $99.

Photojojo is selling it for $100.
