when i was in the usa i picked up a flip camera. couldn't be easier to record movies - press to start, press to stop, flip open the usb stick and plug in to your mac/pc and there you have it. the clips are 640x480. for me it will be great to capture a few things. i tend to focus on still photography and haven't bothered taking a movie camera as well. but this is so small and easy i may do a bit more. it's also ideal for creating some loops for arkaos or keynote or whatever...
in terms of movies i'll upload at vimeo. here's the first flip movie.
I WANT ONE!!!! N-O-O-0-W-W-W!!!
Seriously they are a nifty little piece of kit. First time I've heard of them. Even the fact that Lily Allen uses one to shoot her video blog is not enough to put me off. By the way, I liked your 'life through the bottom of a glass' video.

Is there a time limit on how long you can record?
It looks so cool!
