Saw this video... and, if to be believed, it states that you CAN go above 400 feet if you are within 400 feet of a tall object, where you can then go 400 feet about THAT tower or building! Of course this still presumes you are in legal airspace.

Follow-up:
I went to a local drones club meeting and learned about 2 apps for one's phone so-as to know where it's legal/illegal to fly. One is called "Hover" and the other, which has better maps, is "AirSpace." I asked a lot about rules and there really aren't many... yet. In Portland, you can't fly in public parks or at schools (without permission). Etiquette calls for no flying over houses unless over 100 feet (or have permission). They aren't allowed in national parks either. Otherwise, it's mostly uncharted territory.

My latest (which turned out nice except for sloppy editing near the end). Always best in 1080p HD on Full Screen mode at YouTube.
