What does a company do when it makes a highly successful DV camcorder that fits in the palm of your hand and shoots surprisingly high quality 640x480 resolution video? At less than $200? Well, it shrinks the next version, adds some cool sharing ...

Tiny video recorder for the YouTube generation

The easiest video camera you'll ever use, but it's pricey and the feature set is very basic.

We've seen the Ultra, now here's the Mino - a slimmer version of Flip's pocket camcorder.
