 Buggy firmware problem March 11, 2008
3 out of 4 found this review helpful
I bought the 60-minute Flip for my wife for Christmas. We shot about 50 minutes worth of footage, and uploaded to our Mac. This process was not intuitive; it required some deciphering of the instructions and installation of DiVX codecs (even though I already had some DiVX codecs installed).
But after I downloaded the video to the computer, the Flip seemed to "forget" that it was empty. It was. I checked multiple times, on different computers. I would record about 2 minutes, then display "Recorder Full". After we pulled off the 2 minutes of footage, the Flip STOPPED WORKING, period.
It would then display "Camera Empty". But when we hit the record button, it would refuse to record, displaying the message "Recorder Full". Well, make up your mind, Flip!!!
The online forums haven't been much help. I'm going to update the Flip's firmware today, and see if that does it. Regardless of how cute and portable it is, if it's not reliable, it's just useless to me.
I feel like I'm out $130, and we've missed many family moments that we thought we'd be able to easily record. PASS ON THE FLIP UNTIL THE PRODUCT BECOMES MORE RELIABLE.
 GOOD VALUE - USER FRIENDLY - GREAT SUPPORT March 10, 2008
Researched many alternatives, but couldn't find a better all around value when it comes to price, ease of use and customer support. Recommend highly to anyone who simply wants simplicity, portability and the ability to capture quality videos for those memorable moments.
I love it! March 10, 2008

I love it! It is simple, well constructed, and adequate for most reasonably ambitious amateur purposes including YouTube publishing. It is also tiny and easy to have available at any time. An excellent alternative to the 3-minute video on point and shoot digital still cameras - that does not exist anyway on SLS.
Great product March 9, 2008

The Flip is a great camcorder. It is lightweight and very easy to use. It is extremely portable. It produces good quality video. I love that it takes AA batteries so you can easily replace them on the go. Great product!
