Mino or Mino HD: Is the HD worth it for this?

I think Creative Vado HD is superior to the rest. You can search Amazon.com for Creative Vado HD or look at http://nothingbutcreative.blogspot.com/ for sample clips from Vado HD. It's really promising.

Zotacs proposal is the less the best. It doesnt come with anything. Not even a hard drive. Every thing is your choice. You decide what os or hd you want.

According to the specs and other reviews I've been reading, the software for the MinoHD is much better now for Mac than the previous version, but be aware that if you're working on an older laptop or desktop Mac, the Mino HD is not compatible with Mac's running power PC processors, Mac switched to Intel based processors a few years back, so if you bought your mac within the last 2 years or so, you should be fine.

This is a close call. Depends on what you need. The hotone is about ten bucks cheaper, a tiny bit smaller, and has a lit and seperate volume switch, and does 15 minutes. The digitech does ten minites, takes batteris, works nicely with other digitech products in th line, has seperate led's for record and dub etc..., and takes batteries. I would go with the Digitech for ten bucks more unless an inch matters. Being able to use a battery with such a small pedal is good (otherwise why buy such a small one) and the seperate led lights are the tie breaker imho.

I did some research on this a couple of years ago and as I recall there is a different model for HD. I do not have the HD camera so did not need the HD version. The HD version was a bit higher in price.

I don't think I use it any more. It has been awhile, but I recall having problems with it...but I can't be sure. Truth is you will see no real ("butt dyno in car-nut speak&lt;G&gt;) difference between the different specs in real world experience, so it is not worth pursuing IMHO. If on a system drive, go with an SSd -- even w/Sata2 the difference will wow you. 120GB is plenty big enough unless you had hundreds of application, then 240. $150 or less. Keep data off the boot drive.

I have a Mino HD and i have a 20inch 2.66ghz iMac and it works fine you just have to meet the minimum requirements

It is good enough for casual recording and youtube quality. If you want better quality, you need to consider Vado HD which is more expensive.

Has anyone tried a Mino HD in this Underwater case? Because the Mino is smaller, I thought with some additional padding it may work. If I find a store that sells the AWC2T I'll take my Mino in and do a fit check.

I have found that my two drobos work very well for my needs. The one thing I would like to see work better, but I think it is a limitation of Windows not Drobo, is to report the current size of the mass of drives not some specific value like 16TB when you only have 5TB total space. I've installed Plex Server on my Drobo5n and it's been working great even without a mSSD that can improve performance. I don't know or really care about the processor or other specs as long as it works well and performs well.

what would you need 1.3 megapixels for? regardless the images will still be crap, if you want real pictures go buy a nikon or canon, or standalone webcam for chat if you're that picky. On MSN .3 - 1.3 looks same, also saves bandwidth.bluetooth - go stick in a flush usb adapter, 15$. No bluetooth - one less way to waste battery.DVD drive - get your own standalone drive. no DVD - less weight, less battery drain.I like this low voltage core duo style, I'm gonna spring for the UL50vt.

I'm going to only answer this from the perspective of a personal opinion. I have never owned a DROBO older models or newer models. However Many of the folks I know that have owned them don't see to be going back to them as they expand. I have at least 6 different TB drives from LaCie. They have been pretty reliable all things considered. It's what I'll use in the future and what I recommends to friends. If they start failing on me which all drives seem to do sooner or later I might change. The Lacie 5 appears to be fairly easy to upgrade or change drives out. I like having that option though I haven't used it yet.

Flip has been in the market before Creative Vado and thus a lot of people is still not aware of Creative Vado HD's existence. Creative Vado HD is the first product in this area that truely shines. The original Vado is more for fun and does not offer high quality video/audio. If the Vado HD works as expected and is easy to use for PC and mac, I believe it will catch up sooner or later.

That is a fundamental difference with the Vado HD as compared to the Flip Mino HD. The Vado HD comes standard with an HDMI cable and a RCA cable as an option ($9.95). With ALL of these HD cameras you need a sufficiently powerful CPU/video card because of the HD files demands.
