Anyone have one of these flip camcorders? Can you share your review on them?
I ran into a friend last night that has one and they seem pretty cool, easy to use and upload to computer. My one worry is file type. I am looking for a simple file type that I can use in something like Windows Movie Maker.

I use one...decent quality, simple to use, not a horrid vid. Granted, these are flying in my bro's plane, so it doesn't give you an idea of sound quality, which isn't horrid. Also keep in mind that some of the quality outside is simply from the cockpit window and sunlight.
Here's a couple I've taken:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ofUGcWpBa70&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/ofUGcWpBa70&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/yuOBX7Um3ok&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/yuOBX7Um3ok&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
Keep in mind, the quality goes down when you load onto youtube...it's better viewed from the files downloaded direct to the computer. :thumbsup

Oh, and you can load the files into any movie viewer and editor AFAIK. It's an .AVI file....

I have had one for a little over a year now.
They work good and are easy to use but suck for stuff like drag racing because they don't have alot of zoom.

:goof
Actually, that's the prop...it's super high tech wavy lines propel us to near the speed of sound. Looks different, but works great.
