Several people have e-mailed me wondering when we'd have our review up of the Creative Vado HD mini camcorder. Well, now it's up, and the big question everyone is asking is whether it's better than the Flip Video Mino HD. The short answer is yes--and no.

Basically, the Vado HD's video quality isn't quite as good the Mino HD's. But its feature set is superior. So, it's a tough call.

I think it was really a blessing that i did not pre-order the flip HD, the vado HD seems way better in terms of value. Honestly, why would I want a 1.8" screen when I can have a 2" screen. And a HD camcorder that can't out put in HD, that's really a joke flip.
