Father's Day

Yes, Carol, I know. I covered both Father's Day and Birthday this year with that beautiful watch I am now wearing.

But this would be for next Father's Day, if you want to go ahead and get that obligation over with.

Paul, you can check ours out (if we get it). We have been looking to replace the video camera we had stolen and have just about settled on this one!

I notice that the older model, a little larger and a little cheaper, takes AA batteries. That may be preferable to the lithium-ion model to which I link.

The Flip Mino is the perfect combination of form and function. Its minimalist, retro front is the perfect complement to its high-tech modern back, with a large no-glare screen, touch-sensitive panel, and glowing backlit control buttons. All focused around Flip’s signature red record button that lets you go from pocket to recording in seconds. I recommend Father's Day Gift Ideas

Thank you, Arlene. I looked at your blog. Very nice. The WSJ had a review of the Flip Mino in yesterday's issue. Our family will recall the first video tape camera we had: it took a full-size VHS video tape cartridge; you hoisted the thing to your right shoulder and held it with two hands as you looked through the view-finder. There was absolutely no way to conveniently edit. For low-light situations you needed a spot-light attachment - ours plugged into the wall socket, so there was no taking pictures outside.
