I just discovered this very cool device (I know, I'm late). Seems like the way to go for sharing videos online. Anyone here have one?

My niece has one - loves it; great HD movies and pics, but everything is saved to internal memory for transfer by USB, so unless you have access to storage, filming time can be limited.

I bought one on the recommendation of Mikey. It's a nice piece of equipment. I bought the Ultra Model with 60 minutes record time. Found it on sale at Wal Mart for $119. plus tax. I believe Zuki just bought the HD model, that's priced at about $179.

PS speaking of toys, our kids gave me (I said I would never buy one for myself ) a Garmin nuvi 200W for my birthday last month, and I have to say I am looking forward to using it on a road trip Lydia and I will be taking in the near future ...

I endorse it with 2 thumbs up!!! It gets Mikey Maestro's seal of approval!

If anyone is on the fence and needs to be pushed over or have questions about the software call me anytime. My phone is always on for synthzoners.

Does anyone know of a decent inexpensive camcorder like the Flip with direct audio ins?

I must confess, for a musician, the audio side of things ought to be one of the primary considerations. HD is all well and good, but only the video is HD. The audio is often still little better than a cassette. It's not that the format can't record it, it's just that most of these things have no way of recording audio than the horrible built-in mikes and crappy audio compression they put on it...

Surely we want to SOUND at least as good as we look (or a LOT better, in my case!)

FlipHD... 720p. Pretty damn good, IMO.

I have a 50 inch lcd and was pleasantly surprised. It even comes with the special cable in the box. Looks like a 1/8" to a Y rca/ video
