Typically the hardware I buy has many bells and whistles. I love products that can do a lot of things very well. My iPhone is not an exception to the rule, but the Flip MinoHD is. Unlike the iPhone, the Flip MinoHD does just one thing really well, and thats OK with me. It takes great movies without a lot of fuss. I love intuitive interfaces, and thats what this camcorder has, and not much else.

Here are a few reasons why I love it:

The smaller the better. The form factor is very similar to a candy bar cell phone. It slips right into your pocket or, in my case, my wife’s purse. It claims to be the world’s smallest HD camcorder weighing in at only 3.3 ounces.










Simple & Intuitive. There is no menu system to get lost in, and no need for explanation. I picked it up and immediately knew what to do to get it going. You power it on with a power button on the side and hit the big red button to record. The other controls are primarily for playback.












No wires or loose parts. For someone who has a serious problem with misplacing wires, this is a great feature. With the press of a button, a USB adapter pops out of the top of the camcorder for immediate use. I know there are some people that like expandable memory and removable batteries, but I am not one of them. It has 4GB of flash memory and a rechargeable battery built in.
