Flip Video Ultra Series Camcorder, 60 Minutes (Orange)
- What you see is what you get - the Pure Digital Flip Ultra Series F260 Camcorder is probably the simplest videocam and does exactly what it's made for. There's really not much into it - just a decent pocketable, low-price videocam that has a 2-gig memory good for 60 minutes and is capable of transferring videos onto a pc via a USB cable, videos can be viewed on a TV via the audio/video cable. Looks neat, but I'd go for a high end camera phone with a good video recording feature so I won't have to carry an extra gadget around, but that's just me.
