According to Gizmodo, Flip announced their new Flip Video recorder that will be released on June 5th, 2008! The pictures of the Flip Mino look impressive. This new video recorder is said to be much slimmer and smaller than the previous models. Take it from me, Flip Video products are moxtastic! I use mine (Flip Ultra) all the time and the resolution is actually pretty darn impressive.

The Flip Mino will arrive in stores this Friday and will retail for $179.99. The Mino will be 40% smaller than the Flip Ultra and also has touch-sensitive buttons on the back for the video controls. This Flip holds 2gb of flash memory allowing for a total of 60 minutes of VGA-quality footage. Software is installed in the Flip which allows anyone, including your grandma, to edit video. It plugs directly into your USB port in your computer and it’s super easy to use.

For a moxie review of the Flip, make sure you check out my post here (regarding the Flip Ultra). If you’re in the market for a new video camera that doesn’t break your bank, I would suggest buying the new Flip Mino! Enjoy video recording!
