Couldn't find any thread about it, so which one should I buy? I've a GoPro HD1 in the moment but there are a few aspects like the bad audio which seem to be no problem for the Contour...

i have a contour works great awesome quality and sound. it does not come with a water proof case but you do not really need it is can take some water and snow never a problem with that if you are gonna do like surfing then get the case the $40. but whenever i go to mount snow to ski with my friend i use his go pro just because its easier to hold and just sorta switch off filming opposed needing the mount.

I personally have a gopro and consider contour better, no fogging, easy to know if it's on if your going
