 love the flip June 17, 2008

Acquired my flip camcorder a couple of days ago - and I LOVE it. Simple and easy to use [I was filming within 2 minutes of taking it out of the box and installing the batteries], it does exactly what the product description/specification says it will do. I messed up setting the time and date when I first switched it on so emailed support for help and received a reply within 24 hours [on a Sunday] providing the correct solution. Definitely 5 stars!!
[Edit]
Update to review: No problems installing the software on a Mac [fully Leopard compatible - OS X 10.5.3]. Easy to follow instructions to save, share, edit videos, make movies etc. - have saved, edited and shared videos via private email and as attachments to email messages without a hitch. All seems to work flawlessly on the Mac.
 Flip video Ultra - really great! June 9, 2008

I bought one of these when I visited the USA last month. It is really simple to use, and the results on pc & when displayed on TV are great. I haven't tried to edit anything yet though. I also bought a better & more substantial case than the one supplied, from a well known online auction site based in the USA.
Brilliant piece of kit June 22, 2008

It's tiny, sturdy, ultra-portable - you can stick it in your handbag or pocket - and absolutely idiot-proof to use. I love that you don't need any other bits of stuff - no wires, no cables, no chargers, no nothing. Takes great movies, or at least great enough movies for most home users' needs. I love mine and use it every day, as opposed to bringing out its complicated, fiddly predecessor once in a blue moon. NB if you use a Mac and want to edit your films in iMovie08, you'll need QuickTime Pro. If you're happy to edit using the Flip's inbuilt software, you're ready to go straight out of the box.
Great little Camcorder June 27, 2008

My Flip arrived in the post this morning and it's incredibly simple to use. You don't even need instructions as it's so easy - I was recording in just a couple of minutes.
The software supplied is also very straight forward - I had recorded and edited a mini movie just 40 minutes after the postman dropped my Flip off. Uploading to the web was also simple to do.
I expect I will probably invest in some new software soon, as I would like to be able to do a little bit more in the way of editing than the supplied software allows. However it is more than enough to get you started and for people who want to keep things simple it's ideal.
The Flip records well indoors, even in low light with the curtains closed, but I expect it will struggle at night as there is no built in light.
It's small enough to slip into a pocket or handbag and very light weight. Also better image quality recording than my mobile phone - none of that blurring that you often see on phone cameras. This is perfect for recording videos for YouTube, email etc.
My only criticism so far is that the 'beep' when you turn the camera on or off sounds a bit tinny, but I can live with that!
If you're looking for something very straight forward to use then this camera is perfect. A 2 year old could work a Flip!
Simple. Durable. Fast. Quality. June 30, 2008

The Flip is simple. It is the fact that it is so simple to use and operate that makes it so charming. Point and shoot Web quality videos within 4 seconds of pulling it out of your pocket. It is light weight and can be carried with you in a pocket wherever you go. The 'flip' usb mechanism is sturdy and means that there are no wires to carry around when connecting to your own, or someones elses laptop or desktop PC or Mac. Sound quality is excellent and the camera auto balances light as you shoot dependent on light quality. Great for vlogging with (Video Blogging).
