     This is the easiest piece of electronic equipment that I have ever used!  Literally, take it out of the package, hit the power button, then hit the record button, and you are on your way!

     When you are done with your video, pop the little USB arm out from the side of the camera and plug it in to your PC.  The software is on the camera, there are no CD-Roms to lose, no cable to fiddle with, nothing.  It is that easy.  Your videos just pop up on your screen.

     I can't think of anything that I have ever used was this easy.  There isn't even a manual, it is just a small instruction sheet.  They do include a cable so that you can watch your videos on a regular TV.

     If you are a video pro, this might not be for you.  So far, they are only available with space for 60 minutes, it has internal memory and there is no removable card or chance for upgrading that 60 minutes to more.  And the editing features are limited, but I was able to edit my videos more with other software that I already had.

     This is a great video camera for the tech challenged, the  YouTube  addict, or anyone that just wants to capture a moment quickly and easily. You can't beat the price of $150 to $180 either.

Thanks Ron. Yes, the storage space could be an issue for many.
