After my trip to Asia i will stay 5 night in NY but my dive trip will be before this days.

Juliano.

It took me 60 seconds -- mostly because I didn't know what a "GoPro" was -- but I found this info:

My first choice for a place to go would be B&H. They sell the GoPro and likely sell any and all accessories. They are also a real camera shop, so you might get better advice than at a place like BestBuy.

They open at 9am (10am on Sunday), so if you get in too late to go at night, you can go there right at opening and be out in time to catch your flight. Bear in mind that they are closed on Saturdays.

Here is an article they put out on using it as a dive camera:

Good luck.

Also, it might be worth calling ahead to make sure any place you go has it in stock since you will be very short on time.

Just so you know, there are no Walmarts in New York City. If you are staying in the city, they won't be an option.

Go to this link

for info on Best Buys that have GoPro Hero3 items presently in stock, in mid-town Manhattan. I would definitely phone a store BEFORE going there, however.
