Questions...

...can the low quality Taiwan/China camcorder audio be improved with this model and has the Ambarella chip integration been improved to avoid the notorious "wavy video" effect seen in Aiptek camcorders and Logitech Web cams?

But -- for that low, low price -- I'm sure some people won't care.

I suspect cameras like this will flood the market in the days ahead.

Me too, and for a 'stringer cam' it may be perfect even without high end quality.

Kind of interesting.

This segment is going to be profitable, in my view.

Wonder how the new DXG camcorders compare to the new Aiptek models?
