Review: eBuddy Pro for iPhone
Both the free and pro versions of this multi-protocol IM app work pretty well, though not right out of the box. But if you're willing to tweak a few settings, eBuddy performs quite capably.

Ecamm's BT-1 wireless Webcam works over the Bluetooth likely already built into your Mac, letting you bring your camera to your subject instead of vice versa. But it's not without its drawbacks.

Review: Memorex MCC225 MyVideo HD pocket camcorder
The MyVideo is purely a budget buy, but a solid one. Its looks and build quality may not be something you can fall in love with, but it shoots good enough video in bright light to make it a decent value for the $130 price.

Panasonic’s HDC-HS300 is capable of extraordinary video quality and offer a good range of manual options, with manual lens ring controls that are as easy to use as they are capable.

There are only two reasons to buy Sanyo’s Xacti VPC-WH1 HD camcorder, but they’re good reasons: It’s inexpensive, and it’s waterproof.
Review: JVC Everio GZ-HM400
Designed to sit at the top of JVC’s Everio camcorder line, the GZ-HM400 should give its rivals a run for their money.
Review: JVC Picsio GC-FM1 pocket HD camcorder
On paper, JVC’s Picsio GC-FM1 pocket HD camcorder is loaded. But pocket-camcorder championships aren’t won on paper, they’re won on-screen and in your hands

The first Flip camcorder released under the Cisco brand is a winner.

Review roundup: Pocket HD camcorders
In this review roundup, we will look at what defines a pocket HD camcorder and review the features of some of today’s popular models.
Review: Kodak Zi8 pocket HD camcorder
The Kodak Zi8 is notable for shooting 1080p video. Unfortunately, that video isn't terribly good.
Review: Kodak Zx1 HD pocket camcorder
The Zx1 is more compact than most pocket HD camcorders, but its video quality leaves much to be desired.
Review: Genius G-Shot HD520 pocket HD camcorder
The G-Shot HD520 pocket HD camcorder from Genius is more affordable than its competitors, such as the Flip UltraHD, the Vado HD, or the Zi6.
Review: Webbie MHS-PM1 HD pocket camcorder
Sony’s pocket camcorder entry, the Webbie MHS-PM1 offers a few features that make it unique, but it unfortunately falters where it counts the most: video image quality.
Review: Flip UltraHD pocket camcorder
Pure Digital has lowered the price and increased the video quality of pocket HD with the Flip UltraHD.
Review: Sanyo Xacti VPC-CG10 pocket HD camcorder
Pocket-able HD camcorder sports lots of options but compromises on quality.

If you shoot pictures with a digital single-lens reflex (SLR) camera and carry a point-and-shoot for its video capability, then Nikon’s D90 might be the camera for you.
Review: Canon Vixia HG21 HD camcorder
Canon’s Vixia HG21 is a feature-filled high-definition camcorder that acts and feels like a workhorse. And for such a small camera, it produces great video image quality. Alex Lindsay thinks it's one of the better HD camcorders he's seen.
Review: Creative Labs Vado HD pocket camcorder
Another HD pocket camcorder, with its own collections of quirks and charms.
Review: DXG-567V HD camcorder
Inexpensive pocket camcorder is a poor performer.
Review: Panasonic HDC-SD100 HD camcorder
The Panasonic HDC-SD100 HD camcorder provides a great set of well-implemented tools that are in the right place at the right price. Unfortunately, poor connection placement and poor imaging make it hard to recommend this camera.
Review: Sony HDR-CX12 HD camcorder
The Sony HDR-CX12 has so much potential—great image quality, manual control, and great extras—that are marred by serious shortfalls—camera dock requirement, lack of external audio in, and no progressive modes. If you can get over these, you’ll enjoy the HDR-CX12.
Review: Flip MinoHD mini camcorder
The latest Flip Mino shoots in 720p HD. It's a sleek and easy to operate camcorder, but it doesn't measure up to Kodak's Zi6.
Review: Kodak Zi6 HD mini camcorder
The mini camcorder market is heating up. Kodak's new HD-capable device is an impressive offering and is a definite contender amongst camcorders such as Pure Digital's Flip Ultra and Flip Mino.
