You will lose about an inch in the arms sizing down to a large so if you have that much length to work with then I would go with the large. The roomy could come in handy if you need to layer up for those really cold days or for wearing it after Thanksgiving dinner.

They are all enclosed in one package and not as awkward as the Vio as the Vio has the battery pack, wires etc. I want the smallest possible. The quality of this one is very nice even though it is cheaper. Personally I would go with this one or the Go Pro HD once it arrives. Both great choices for half the cash.

This jacket is just what I needed, an in-expensive jacket that will keep the wind and water out. After camping in rain for two days, I was still dry and still happy. I would have given it 5 stars but the front is a little short for me. I am 6'6" though so I am not surprised. The rear is a lot longer and was just fine. Great jacket and convenient with the little stuff sack.
