What Do You Guys Think? Is it really worth the 299.00 Or could I rig up or find something better?

Here is a link to the Go Pro.

Where are you mounting these and what dose it come with to mount with?

I got a GP prior to the HD version being released.

My only issue is the audio quality, no external mic input and no remote control.

The kit comes with a case and multple mounts and spindles, allowing to be mounted in just about any orientation. You can even mount it upside down and select the "Inverted" mode and it looks great.

I'm had the suction cup mount on slightly curved surfaces, like the roof of my F-Car or CTS-V and the hood of a C5 chase car. Not a problem, even at triple digit speeds.

There are some codec issues in early versions of windows, like XP. But Windows 7 appears to be able to handle it OK.

Here's some GP Hero video ...
