Creative has introduced its new affordable Vado pocket camcorder that is slim enough to fit in your pocket. The Vado HD comes with a 2 inch LCD screen, 8 GB internal memory and 720p MPEG- recording capability. Creative claims that this is the only Pocket Video Camera that features HDMI connectivity and offers HDMI cable which provides 108i output to an HDTV.

I love the fact that Vado Hd doesn’t require you to carry any tapes or DVDs with you. It offers a removeable and rechargeable battery that provides up to 2 hours of recording and playback. You can always get extra batteries to easily swap them to capture more and more clips that you can cherish.

Key features include

• Capture high-definition video
• 2 hours of recording and playback
• Connect and share in an instant
• Edit movies and snap photos
• Playback video on your HDTV
• Built-in USB cable for PC
• High-quality video compression
• Large 2″, antiglare screen
• Rechargeable for hours of fun

I’m definitely going to order one for myself this Christmas. It’s available at CREATIVE.com for just $199.99
