Yes, the specs are pretty impressive.  The promo video is stellar!

It's certainly on my wish list. I was planning to go for a Hero 2, but with the announcement of the Hero 3, the 3 Black Edition seems to be the one for me!

Yeah, i ordered the black one bcause i thought the wireless remote and better low light might come in handy.  I really cant wait to try out ths camera, it has so many features and capabilities for $400.  Underwater and time lapse in places where i dont want to risk my 5d3 and L glass.
