There's no LCD screen but ours came with a wifi pack that allows you to use your smartphone, with an app, to control the camera. You can buy different cases like a dive housing or a skeleton housing where you can have access to mic-in on the unit. You can also do time-lapses upto a minute interval, although I have not tried time lapses on the gopro yet.
The hero3 black looks very nice because of its extended filming modes but this model will set you back $400. The advantage to this model is wifi is built in and its smaller than hero2 models and it includes a remote to control it.
it can even be used in taping: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iSzgi2VhDw

I love go-pro's. They are a hoot! Both for outdoor adventures, but also concert shooting.
As someone said above, if you don't have the lcd or wifi bacpac then you have to guess a bit when you aim it, but as the field of view is so wide, most often it works out.
I used a variety of cams for these two videos. Flipcams (on the sides) Drift HD (on the drums) Panasonic GF1 (behind the drums) two go pros (towards the brass and on the keyboards) and the two big main cams.
(yep, 8 cams...and one cameraman!)
