I dont have any experience with the palmcorder but I do have the go pro hero HD. I like it very much. Very easy to use and like you mentioned, lots of options. The only thing that is not great is the sound recording but I had it mounted on the rear of the car so the wind noise was covering the exhaust. If I were to put it up front behind the wind shield, I am sure it would sound much, much better. The suction cup mount is great. It allows it to be mounted just about any where and it sucks down to the car very securely.
