flip camcorder with wifi connectivity on the cards

 Cisco, who brought out Pure Digital (the company behind the ever popular Flip ‘YouTube’ camcorder earlier this year, have hinted that they are set to release an updated version of the Flip pocket video camera in the first half of next year that will see the device can integrated WiFi wireless connectivity.
According to Cisco, the new iteration of the Flip camcorder will not only allow users to hook up to both private and public networks – thus allowing for video footage to be uploaded to the net with the minimum of hassle even whilst you’re out and about (as long as there’s WiFi access available, of course) – but the new version of the Flip will also feature a what’s termed as “a large screen that slides to reveal the record and menu buttons underneath” which, we assume, will allow the device to remain compact whilst still offering ease of navigation and control as well as an integrated display. Unfortunately the display will not offer touchscreen functionality, however, doubtless in a bid to keep unit pricing especially competitive.
At present little else is known, or being reported, concerning the new iteration of the Flip video camera though it is envisaged to hit the shelves something in the first half of 2010 for an as yet unconfirmed price.
