From Pure Digital Technologies comes the new flip Ultra HD. The flip Ultra HD combines the original flip’s “HAL” looking optic, pocket-sized portability, built in ‘Flipshare’ software and exceedingly simple to use functionality into a beautifully designed HD video recording camcorder for the masses. Priced at a phenomenally affordable $199.99 and able to record 120 minutes of HD video, the new Ultra HD sets a new ‘camcorder benchmark’ for price point, affordability and features.
