yea i have one and love it. the only reason i see buying the full hd one necessary is for the hd backpack. i can barely tell the difference between 960hd and 1080hd. go for it!

If you really want people to watch your stuff just save up and buy the full-fledged Hero. The options you get with it are way better. You'll wanna upgrade if you get the 960

yeah, the 1080gopro at full quality is still shitty haha so I could see the 960 being just unbearable to watch
