Summary: died way too quick
Comment:
Bought this in October 09.

Recorded about 30 minutes of video since then. Charged the battery four times.

The unit is now dead: wont take a charge, wont power on.

I am pursuing a refund. I consider this to be junk.

Summary: Better than Zip....
Comment: I've been using the Vado video camera for a few months now and I am very happy with it. The High Definition quality is excellent and the accompanying video editing software is adequate for my amateur needs. I highly recommend the product. I have a friend who uses the Zip and for the price and picture quality, the Vado wins hands down.

Summary: Great Value Video Camera
Comment: Awesome video camera - great value for under $150. I have used it at sporting events, parties, and trade shows. Ideal for close ups. Video and audio quality are excellent. Small camera size was a major factor for me since it can fit in my pocket. Great for Facebook material and for customer interviews - love the fold-out USB cable . Also bought a carrying case and mini tri-pod (Jobe)as accessories, well worth it.

Summary: Be aware when trasfering the files to your computer.
Comment: Be warned - Once you transfer the videos to an external PC and rename the files while the Vado is still being connected to the PC, the Vado cannot longer recognize them and play them on its own. The files are still inside the Vado, they take out of the memory, but when trying to play them back you get one big NO FILE! on the screen.
The other thing is that the video player and the pluggins that are part of the Vado's internal memory work only within the device, meaning you cannot install them on external PC and play, manipulate or create movies and burn dvds from files already being transferred to the PC, only whatever you see being inside vado's memory, and as I said before - do not rename the files before disconnecting Vado from your PC.
Also 4GB is not that much considering that a 3 min. HD+ video file is close to 200MB, so do the math. And by the way there is really no point of shooting less than the HD+ format, the difference in the quality of standard def, hd, and hd+ is noticeable.
