I had the flip video, and didn't like it. Sold it for less than half i bought it for. The quality of the video on the flip, was worse then my canon point-and-shoot camera.

Sony bloggie just came out with a small one in 3G for $250. Otherwise the bloggie touch looks decents.
Only complaint I see so far is that it's best to shoot in landscape mode for this cam.

The Elph-100 takes better HD video than any flip on the market.  And it's tiny.

"Full 1080p HD Video for exceptional quality and keep footage stabilized with Dynamic IS.

Full 1080p HD Video for exceptional quality with stereo sound, plus a dedicated movie button for easy access. Zoom optically while shooting video and keep footage stabilized with Dynamic IS."

even though the elph might be a better video camera, if you look around you can sometimes buy a refurbished flip for really cheap.

Yup, they lost a ton of $$$ on that deal, hopefully the IP (and other assets) are worth something to them...
