Flip Video Ultra Offers More Capacity

Remember back in May when the Flip Video debuted as a simple way for folks to cature digital video and upload it directly to YouTube? Now Pure Digital Technology is back with the Flip Video Ultra, offering 1 and 2 GB capacities, the ability to edit footage right in the camera, and—of course—software which uploads video to sharing sites like YouTube and AOL.

"Flip Video Ultra’s sleek new design will make it the camcorder of choice for people who want to capture and share life’s spontaneous moments, no matter where or when they happen," said Jonathan Kaplan, Pure Digital Technologies chairman and CEO, in a release. "It’s the perfect solution for anyone who wants a stylish, high quality, take-anywhere camcorder."

Pure Digital is still a reluctant to reveal the full specs of the camera…but those aren’t really the reasons consumers would be interested anyway. The Flip Video Ultra sports a 1.5-inch LCD display, one-touch recording with a 2× digital zoom, one-click sending of video email and video greeting cards, and custom editing of movie mixes which can be set to users’ own music. The Flip Video Ultra even has a tripod mount!

The Flip Video Ultra will be available in 1 and 2 GB capacities, with the former priced at $149.99 and available in black and white, while the latter come in white, black, pink, and orange and bear a $179.99 price tag. Pure Digital has also expanded the number of retailers carrying the camera: where they used to be the domain of CVS and Wal-mart, now they’re available in Best Buy, Target, CompUSA, and from online retailers like Amazon.com.
