PhoneScoop on YouTube.com got to play with Helio's new flagship phone, the Ocean, for about an hour before they took it back. That was just enough time to get a feel for it and record this video.
Okay, this is ANOTHER wish on NerdBoyTV's Christmas List ;-)

SHOW #009 - NERDBOY GADGET: NerdBoyTV loves the Flip Video Ultra
NerdBoyTV is a BIG fan of this little innovative video camcorder.
When my 14-year-old was a baby and toddler, I lugged around a GIGANTIC Hi-8 (remember those) camcorder. I remember videotaping EVERY moment, yawn, and giggle and have about 15 two-hour tapes of her. Then came the three boys and I just lost the energy to pull the big, awkward camcorder out to film anything.
How I wish they had this little gadget back then...
But, I'm making up for lost time quickly. Now, at parties, restaurants, parks, events, or at home, I just click the Flip Video Camcorder on like a digital camera and start recording. The video AND audio are quite impressive considering the size of the unit.
What I like best is that the camera is as easy-to-use as a digital camera...just point and click. You'll find that you're more willing (and ready) to capture everyday events that you'll treasure for a lifetime.
...and isn't that the point of having a camcorder anyway?

PROS:
- Easy-to-use (most important) with a fairly intuitive user interface
- Small, compact, and quickly accessible
- Software built into the camera; just plug-and-play
- Can easily upload to YouTube.com
- Proof that even a kid can use it; my 6-year-old uses it all the time!
- Inexpensive and now comes is a variety of nifty colors
CONS:
- Buttons a little awkward for those of us with "stubby" fingers
- USB arm connector is difficult to attach to some computers
- Why even bother with a 30-minute version of this camera? Stick with the 60-minute!
