It may be a couple years until this is in my price range, but this little device will rock the consumer cam-corder market: JVC Introduces Hard Disk Camcorders. This will make transferring video from your computer to DVD or the Internet nearly instantaneous since the clips are stored as seperate files (one for each recording session), they’re stored in MPEG-2 format, which is the typical DVD format – and when you translate them into Quicktime or Windows Media format they’ll have a quality starting format.

This is on the top of my Christmas wishlist for 2010, when they’re cheap enough.
