How tough is the GoPro? (accidental review)

I lost my GoPro at high tide in some pretty harsh ocean conditions. After failing to find it, I went back the next morning at low tide and actually found the camera. It was in the water for over 12 hrs and it came out in perfect working condition with the exception of a lens scratched beyond it's usefulness. Not the lens on the camera mind you ...just the case. The coolest part is that the video ran for another 88min after the drop until the the battery ultimately ran out of charge. My tough little camera stayed water tight through it all and saved the camera as well as the 32GB card that was inside. I love my GoPro!!
