i dont know for sure how well the hero3 sounds with the combo-cable so wanted to see/hear comments if anyone had this on their hero3.

hero3 seems to have its own firmware/quality problems as much as the earlier hero models did, so it seems to be a hit or miss.

funny thing is a gallon of milk is more expensive than a gallon of gas.. :| and I consume a lot of both !.. and hey, I think is best for you to find it later on, that way you know it will never land on the wrong hands

You're gonna hate us down in 'awl country

I just paid $3.89 for 93 octane, but the HEB has been more than $0.10 cheaper than that lately and I can save another $0.15 per gallon buying an HEB gift card and paying for the gas with that card
