Jamie, first, thanks to you and Sushii for pointing to these monitors. I have read a lot on them on overclockers, RFD and 120Hz forums. Some shippers still ship DHL (at least the three bigger ones on ebay), but I'm not sure if they'll ship them as a 'sample', most likely not. What I know is if something gets shipped FedEx EXPRESS (not Ground) or UPS EXPRESS, the duty fees are usually included in the shipping cost. All bigger sellers on ebay ship for free via FedEx Express, so hopefully it's a good sign, I'll read up on this more. (Still debating if I want to go for a 'perfect' 0-dead-pixel screen or gamble $50 and get one with maybe 1-5 dead pixels). Btw, all these monitors are made in Korea anyway, being LG-based.

Opt for the regular ones, a few horror stories where they just ship pixel perfect as regulars and hope that its perfect or that the buyer wont notice.

What does having a SSD have anything to do with watching 4k videos on Youtube? It's your processor and internet speed (if you don't want to wait forever) that counts.
Also, please link a 4k video... I can't find any on YouTube.
+1, your standard mechanical hard drive far exceeds the speed of a standard home internet speed.
For videos, just search 4k Video on youtube... plenty

Select Original instead of 1080p
Edit: Looks like youtube stopped support for 4k videos.. all videos are 2048x1536...

That's why I was asking for a 4k youtube video.... But if you download the file off youtube it's 4k...
TimeScapes 4K, 514MB
Video: 4096x2304x12. 23.978fps, AVC
If it does, why didn't you post an example?

Nope... none of those are 4k. They are all 1080p at the most.
If you actually read the description in "TimeScape" you will see links to the 4k video.
I use Adobe Primere, easy to get. Does the frame blend thing for slo-mo, super easy to trim up video clips (razor tool) and my favourite feature is editing the audio for the video in Adobe Audition in one click (normalize, dehiss, etc.).
My super noob video editing (not shot on gopro obviously, dub in original audio, picture in picture with sync, etc.):

I use premiere as well. My brother uses After Effects which I have yet to play with. The twixtor plugin (3rd party plugin) for premiere is really good for super slow-mo interpolation, especially if the video is shot at high frame rate (should work well with the hero 3). I'm still waiting for mine to be delivered.
I've used trakAxPC, they have a 30-day free trial and the program is priced well at $40.
I have the original GoPro and this is first video I made with music and such. (complete noob)

i was looking at trakaxpc, its a decent program, easy to use, but it didnt look like it has colour correction and such options. Correct me if im wrong
doest Primere have colour correction, white balance, etc options ?appreciate the help

Premiere is a studio grade application so it can do all of those things but is generally more complicated to use than consumer oriented programs. That said, there are lots of plugins for Premiere and tons of online resources to help make things simpler.

Same please post any store that has them on sale. I'll prolly get the silver since it's a lot cheaper.

Isn't the silver just a rebadged 2 with wifi built in? The way I see it, if you figure you might use the remote, the black is only around $20 more than a silver + buying the remote separately.
With that said, I almost bought the 2, however in thinking about it, I might want to connect the LCD for framing or get an extended batt pack down the road, which would mean I couldn't use the wifi backback on the 2 (and the remote) at the same time. Since wifi is built in the 3s, connecting either the LCD or extended batt pack and using the remote is not an issue.
Anyhow just my 2 cents. Also my dad picked up a 2 back when they first were deeply discounted (during the launch/pre-order of the 3), so I plan on borrowing it a few times before dropping money on a 3 myself, unless I catch a big sale.
Also for bike mounting, just a fyi that RAM makes a GoPRO to RAM conversion mount, vs having to use the sticky pads which come with the GoPro itself (and in my case, I already have a RAM ball/mount on both the brake lever assembly and the fork stem for a GPS and other things):
