Geeks to buy cameras, tear them apart and figure out how to use them without paying CVS $43 each use.

These will be great once some geeks take the time to hack them so you can download and decode the video data with your PC :-)

How many times is someone going to pay $43 for these before they realize they could get a decent, cheap real camera? I've seen a few for under $80 (Microtek, the scanner people have one; 3 Meg for still) and I'm sure someone out there will find a cheaper one.

"George Lucas isn't going to use this to shoot Star Wars IV,"

Of course not. He shot that decades ago.

I heard CVS has hired Paris Hilton to field test them.

A little hacking and you have yourself a nice little reusable digital videocam for $29.95.

The camcorder weighs 5.5 ounces, Pill said, and is about the size of an MP3 player.

The thing is too small and light to get any stability. I hope they have some type of corrective software to fix that problem.

Someone told me about disposable digital cameras, and I thought she was just confused, but one day I thumb through a sale paper....
