Slacks - We need to see flahs memory digital video cameras out there. That is waht will make the difference. Video eats more than MP3 and everyone loves it.

The real killer app with video will only happen once we have video cameras with at least 4-8GB of memory to store MPEG-2 encoded video. The higher end models will require at least 24GB of memory to store uncompressed DV-quality video. Let's not even talk about high definition that'll require 4X that amount. MPEG-2 video while using the lessor amount of memory is more costly and time consuming for editing. Uncompressed is the way to go. We are headed there for sure and it's only a matter of 1-2 years IMO.
