New 2nd Gen 8GB Flip Video MinoHD - Twice The Capacity, Still Just As Much Fun

Now you can record 120 minutes of 720p HD video on a Flip MinoHD - Just be sure to purchase the 2nd Gen, 8GB model and not the original 4GB one.

Flip Video, by Pure Digital (A Cisco-owned company), has really had a hit on its hands since introducing the Flip Mino and Ultra pocket sized digital camcorders. The compact recorders made their mark by being very portable and being very easy to use for both recording and sharing recorded media, and the new 2nd Gen MinoHD should only add to the value of the lineup.

The new Flip MinoHD features 8GB of embedded memory, two hours of 720p recording time, 2-inch transflective screen to eliminate glare in direct sunlight, and HDMI output for direct digital connection to an HDTV. It joins the original Flip MinoHD, at $199 with one-hour recording time, and the non-HD Flip Mino, at $149.

The new MinoHD also adds brushed-metal finish, slightly rounder design and touch-sensitive buttons. Other features include 960 by 240-pixel display resolution, built-in omni-directional microphone, speaker with software volume control, rechargeable two-hour lithium-ion battery, widescreen TV output and 2x digital zoom.
