Then you also have to flash the firmware on the wifi backpac and remote via Cineform (that is where my issues started).

All a bit of a pain really - lets hope new versions of the wifi backpac come with the new firmware, but I don't think you will get away with not having to do the firmware on the cameras (if you want to use the wifi backpac).
But after the pain, does it work? I don't mind upgrades if it all works afterwards!

That is the new app that lets you control your camera from your smart phone / talet. Havent tried it yet so cant speak for the quality.

The iphone app got released today for the wifi back.

I think the wifi back would be a better purchase than the lcd screen.

Can't wait for the streaming to my iPhone from the gopro works so I can sell my HD and buy a HD 2.

Please keep the updates coming for when it works so I can get involved!
