Flipping Out

Based on a recommendation from some new friends of ours, I bought a handy little gadget yesterday called the Flip. It is a video camera that can literally go anywhere and is tiny enough to fit right in your back pocket. Made by Cisco, the HD Flip stores two hours of video from one charge and has a USB arm built right in. With ease of use and instant playback, even Maddox can record and watch right away. We plan on taking it to the hospital when we have the twins (not that we'll be taping the birthing moments- ha!), and can't wait to capture those special firsts in the months to come.

This little gadget retails for $140 at Best Buy right now, $60 off the usual $199 price. I also purchased the 1 year "accidental death" plan. Gee, do you think it's possible with a pre-schooler and two infants that this poor little camera might get dropped, spilled on, sat upon, or cracked in some other way? The $25 insurance was, in my mind, completely worth the extra pennies!
