Unfortunately, my Flip Ultra is pretty much worthless now. I’m asking for the Kodak for X’mas.

Bluesubaru, the Kodak will do stereo in conjunction with the external mic jack, but I haven’t tried it.

tivoboy, yeah I’ve seen the Zi8 running ~$150 on occasion and someone on Twitter mentioned finding it for $134 via slickdeals.

I would go for the kodak at the moment too, but a new RCA should have been out by now, maybe a bit delayed. I am sure flip is going to get a version out with IS soon, which is an absolute must for an HD mini cam. The kodak can be had from KODAK actually for less than 150$, I am sure an even better deal can be had.

Do any of these offerings offer stereo recording?

We should also add that Mari is a Flip owner and her device’s mic has pretty much failed her…
