do you need to buy a memory card to put in it or does it have built in memory and you just upload it when your done filing?
 
you need an SD card, preferably a rather large SDHC card 16gig or something, it should also be a class 6 SD card (correct me if i'm wrong, could also be a class 4 but anyways it should be a rather fast card...)
GoPro HDs have been known to have compatibility issues with other SD cards...
you can join the GoPro cult (check my signature)
or contact the GoPro support via their website
or contact them on facebook (quickest responses here because both GoPro personnel as GoPro owners can help you out....)
 
so would it be best for me to buy a class 6 memory card? and does the amount of gigs affect it either?
 
Class 4 and 6 differ by minimum read and write speeds. The minimums are typically well below what the cards can actually do. Buy a name brand like Kensington or SanDisk and you'll be fine with a class 4.

I have a 16 gig SanDisk that works great.
 
Don't worry about class or brand name. get the largest card you can get. thats where your money should go. Even a class 2 will record at higher then the gopro's max data rate.

Besides, 32gb class 6's are dirt cheap on eBay.
 
probably class 4 then (i wasn't sure) but anyways if you can try cards first, do it, not all cards will work...
