I had not heard of them until now. How do they compare to the Go Pro? Aren't the prices relatively close?

hmmm, looks cool BUT...... dont be fooled by the title with "HD" it only does 720p. it DOES NOT do 1080p like the GoPro helmet hero. i have vids i have recorded with a 1080p GoPro and then a friend had an Flip HD that is only 720p and its amazing how bad the 720p looks compared to the 1080p. honestly it really looked a lot worse. also i dont believe the Tachyon is waterproof either.

Yes the ops comes in standard def $89 or Hd $139 the micros ARE waterproof and tested to 100' I've beat my tachyons to death and have yet to have one fail .. I have 5 Tachyons ('08,2010,2011hd models) Research them the xc has been documented to 130' dives.. These are great cameras at a great price.. Nobodies trying to fool anybody :). Visit Tachyoninc.com for specs
They used my plane,atc,& quad video in that promo by just downloading it off of YouTube ..and it still looks good :)

^^I've seen 1080P videos that don't even look close to 720P videos, so perhaps the Tachyon only records in frame sizes of 1280x720?
