How good is the audio on iPhone 4 videos?

I'm planning on taking some video with my iPhone 4 at a concert tomorrow. has anyone used one at a concert, or anywhere pretty loud? I'd like to know if I should stick to my regular camera or not...

Indoors, pretty good. About what you'd get from a cheap camcorder. Outdoors, with even a whisper of a wind, forget it. Terrible sound recording, at least while filming a video.

Seems ok to me, This car is very loud and it handled t with no distortion.

decent pickup.

the video mic is the one by the headphone jack (the noise cancellation mic). so you can go ahead and cover the base to get a good grip.

(on a sidenote, using the headphone/mic allows for some really good narration)
