I just purchased a GoPro HeroHD and it's a fantastic camera! In order to keep the size small and the weight down, they put a minimal LCD screen on the front. This makes changing the settings a bit more difficult than on a large screen.
To help me remember what all of the abbreviations stand for, I put together a little cheat sheet to print out and keep with you when you need to change settings on the go.
Here's a printable PDF of the commands that fits in a 1/4 sheet of paper. This is what's on the sheet:
onO / onF - One button on/off
F / P / 3 / PES - Default mode
r1 - r5 - Recording resolutions
