  1. Thanks so much guys.

    Yeah I figured it was not gonna be easy. Besides, the electronic genius is my little brother, not me. Everything looks easy when you think about making others do the all work :-)

    Thanks for the feedback, I guess it makes no sense. Still, howard, if you are opening one, I would appreciate some pics.

  2. Hello guys

    I am wondering if anyone has opened a GoPro HD. I just got one, and I was thinking that the form factor is not all that great....
    It would be cool to separate the lens and sensor from the rest of the body. Then you could really have a very small thing in front (or on the side) of a full face RW helmet, and just mount the body on the back or somewhere else.

    I googled but found nothing.

    Thanks!

  4. Hi,
    I am not from the US , and Im going to Las Vegas for a business convention, and I will have a free weekend so I would like to jump.
    First I thought Eloy, but its going to be a 6 hr drive on saturday, and then 6 hr back on sunday, and my plane leaves for home sunday night.

    So could anybody pls recommend a place near las Vegas? I found these 2 , but I am afraid they might be just tandem operations, or worst yet, a "virutal" DZ for tandems... Any recommendations and / or experiences will be much appreciated,

    These, I was told by Bill, will not lose their magneism. They are rare earth magnets, not metal ones. They are basically powder held together by epoxy and are said to hold their magnetic power for the life of the magnet.




    mmm... what is the life of a magnet ?? ... aha! until it loses magnetism !!

    BTW, the american patent system is a joke.
