Before I go out and buy a card and maybe some new software, will the camera work with Windows 7? I ask because the documentation that came with the camera implies that it will not. BTW, these people don't seem to answer their phone or respond to emails.

Thanks for the advice and the quick response. I hope I'm not being a pain; I just don't know what I am doing (you probably noticed that already).
Sorry Riverken, I tried to answer the windows 7 question in my first paragraph, but I got off on a tangent. I have not used the video editing software that is available from MS for Win7, but IF it cannot use native MP4 files (which it probably can't... *grumble*), MPEG Streamclip WILL be able to convert it to something you can use.

One thing I have figured out is that if you get into doing videos you will be buying new editing software at some point. Apple, Adobe, and MS purposefully make sure their free/cheap software has some basic drawbacks in order to drive customers to the professional-grade software.

In fairness to GoPro, I must report that they did respond to my email this afternoon. The camera is compatible with Windows 7.

All the other info people have provided will get me on my way and I hope to have a really good video of the Dryway to post here some time this summer. Some of it will likely be of bubbles and swirling water, if you know what I mean.

That's the view I will recognize from my runs last summer. :O)
