Mine has arrived today, just need my bloody card to arrive though. Liking the iPhone app, makes setting it up a lot quicker.

Which is called? Or is it obvious lol
Obvious 'GoPro'
Search Go Pro in the app store lol. It only works with WiFi enabled cameras.
Lol it's obvious, search GoPro 
Works really well.
Had loads of issues with my 3 black edition until I updated yesterday, seems to work fine now!

Its great if you mount the camera somewhere thats a bit awkward to get to, so you can change settings etc.
The only problem is leaving the WiFi on munches the battery.
I want to start fiddling around doing some timelapse but I want to do some long ones (all nighters/24 hours) and the official cases that allow charging at the same time are stooooooooopid expensive (Frame is £40, Skeleton Housing is £50!), and the Hero3 is to new for there to be cheap damaged housings on eBay I can take a Dremel to
Anyone got any ideas? I want to be able to mount the camera on official mounts, and charge at the same time, but don't like the look of those dodgy cable hacks that some people have done.

Mount it without a case on under some cover?

Thought it would be, never looked hence me asking
Sorry, I meant I want to be able to charge it while in a case, I'm not worried about it being waterproof.
Basically I need a case with a hole in the side for the charging cable. The official ones are £LOL, and the Hero3 is too new for there to be cheap cases knocking about eBay I can butcher.

If you're not worried about it being watertight...butcher the one you have?
That's what I did for my microphone lead...have toyed with widening the hole further to take power as well but not got around to doing it yet.

So you don't want to butcher your own case, you don't want to bodge the wires, you don't think a damaged case will pop up..
There isn't much else you can do!

Anyone know of a good deal on the 3 Black atm?
Looking around found it for around £280 on eBay, it screams dodgy but 140 people have bought it so maybe ok?
It's mainly for RC stuff, but may use it for car stuff!

It will be an American one to get that price. I bought mine while over there. So much cheaper

Right, got a 3 Black coming tomorrow/Thurs, should be good
Main reason for getting one is Tricopter FPV (got some FatShark Attitude HD goggles coming too), will post some vids up soon

I've been using the Cineform to put together timelapse videos but can't seem to put music to them? Imovie doesn't play the clips short enough to make a smooth video (1 photo per 10secs...).

Attached is my little effort from Gunhill beach at the weekend (about 3 hrs in the sun!). I'm also editing a video of a litte razz in my folks' MG Midget.. really struggle with apt. music choices though!!!
oh and when my Dad woke up, he thought we'd left him!!

Are you putting each pic into iMovie individually !? You can put each pic in for any length of time you like but uber-hassle when CF does it all for you.
Export it out of CineForm then dump that into iMovie....

Right, now with added music.. the quality isn't that great because it exported low res from Cineform but ah well... Staying in London this weekend so might try and do another one as i quite like'em. Especially EvilGiraffes' idea of filming everyday things...

I was going to buy a Hero 2, but TBH the 3 was about the same price especially following that link.
Crazy.
Should come tomorrow. Not actually sure why I've bought one. Peer pressure I think. Nice to have.
Does it come with all the mounts to say, hook up to my car door or front/rear bumper, or will I have to buy those separate?
Separate,
It comes with a flat & a curved adhesive mount, and both waterproof & non waterproof skeleton doors. You'll have to buy a suction mount separate, and a card etc.
