Flip Mino Camcorder now in HD

Following on from the succes of The Flip camcorder, Pure Digital have taken a big step into the world of HD and brought out the Flip Mino HD, shooting in 720p.

It’s dubbed the world’s smallest camcorder, weighing only 3.3 ounces and it is very cute looking. It comes in loads of funky designs and you can even customise it with your own images.

It comes with 4gb of internal memory for up to 60 minutes of high quality video. The built in FlipShare editing software has also been upgraded allowing you instant viewing, editing and one click emailing. And dont forget it has direct upload to You Tube and MySpace for sharing those emabarassing video moments with the world.

I think this is a great Christmas pressie idea, it’s available on line for around £200 at http://www.bitesizedeals.co.uk.

    I would not recommend this site as it is US based and the customer service is horrible. I ordered a digital camera from them around Nov 3rd and it is now Dec 5th and I have nothing. I demanded a refund and I got no response. I am taking this issue up with my Credit Card company now. All this frustration is just not worth it. Don’t shop at bitesizedeals.co.uk.
