They just seem to have entirely different purposes. GoPro looks really good for doing POV work. But, flip seems to be better for standing and filming something.

They just seem to have entirely different purposes. GoPro looks really good for doing POV work. But, flip seems to be better for standing and filming something. I am a swing dancer and people seem to always use a Flip (or a cell phone) when recording themselves or others. So GoPro may be the better camera but that doesn't mean it is appropriate for every situation just as the Flip is not appropriate for every situation.
