Stellar price for the resolution at circuitycity.com- would make an excellent in-car cam

Actually, fixed focus and no optical zoom are a good things in this application. It means that the individual elements in the lens system are rigidly fixed in place, and cannot move around due to bumps and vibration. Until you reach a certain price point (basically pro-grade lenses with true manual focus and zoom rings) the performance of a fixed lens will tend to be better than that of a variable focus and zoom lens when the camera is rigidly anchored to a moving car.

yeah I know, but figured I would point that out for those like TonyC who might want one for more than in-car. I don't think cc carries that one. Walgreens.com was carrying several models at a good discount AND aiptek.com had a factory refurb section at one point.

actually apple has been kicking *** with their video file technology - I've been using their mpeg4 codec for vid now for over a year. Awesome quality and tiny file size - and with qtalternative, all the pcs are happy.

Just bought a very similar one at Walgreens today. Here is a sample video on youtube. Not bad for the price, but you will need a memory card as the internal memory is only about 5mb and is totally useless.
