So...GoPro just announced they're releasing a new version, the GoPro Hero3.
It will have three variants: White Edition, Silver Edition, and Black Edition
White Edition ($199.99) will be the basic version that is more or less the same as the Hero2, but in a smaller package, with Wi-Fi built in.
Silver Edition ($299.99) will be similar to the White Edition, but with upgraded timelapse photo capabilites, and will also include the option of shooting 1080p in "Ultra Wide," "Medium," and "Narrow" fields of view
Black Edition ($399.99) will be the premium option that has 4 higher resolution options than the currently offered 1080p for video as well as super-quick burst photo modes (that can shoot up to thirty 12MP shots in one second) and it also comes with a Wi-Fi Remote included.
The Black Edition can shoot 1080p video (which has a resolution of 1920x1080) at 60, 48, 30 or 24fps whereas the Silver can only shoot at 30 or 24fps and the White can only shoot at 30fps like the current Hero2 model.
The Black Edition's higher resolution options for video are as follows:
2.7k Cin - 2716x1440 (17:9) @ 24fps
2.7k - 2716x1524 (16:9) @ 30fps
4k Cin - 4096x2160 (17:9) @ 12fps
4k - 3840x2160 (16:9) @ 15fps
I can't decide which edition I want now, but I may be selling both of my Hero2 cameras soon to make way for the Hero3's
