 Well, this was pretty much inevitable: Pure Digital, the company that nearly singlehandedly launched the low-priced YouTube camcorder revolution, is taking a cue from Kodak's Zi6 HD Pocket Cam and going HD.
The company debuted the Flip Mino HD, a 3.3 oz camcorder that can capture high-def images. The camera isn't exactly the cheapest device we've seen in the space--it will run about $40 more than the company's current Flip Mino and $90 more than the Flip Ultra--$230.
This is our first product that is starting to scratch a little bit at the traditional camcorder buyer," Pure Digital exec Jonathan Kaplan told The New York Times.
From early shots of the device, the Flip Mino HD looks an awful lot like the standard Mino--tiny display and all.

I'm longing for the day for software or an actual ultra-mobile netbook that has the capabilities of the Flip Mino HD, so you can upload your videos on the go without having to carry extra devices. That would be awesome for the mobile market and a fresh addition to netbook capabilities.

I vote for the Kodak - bigger display and cheaper to boot.

These cameras are truly awesome for the priced asked. Best of all you can get them with customized outstanding designs for the actual retail price. Long live the Flip Mino HD!
