- HD Mini-Camcorders: Flip UltraHD vs. Sony Webbie HD MHS-PM1
Reviews of the Sony Webbie HD MHS-PM1 (orange)

CNET Review
The Good: Attractive design; captures video at 720p and 1080p "HD" resolution; memory-card expansion slot; swiveling lens; component video cables; rechargeable lithium ion battery.
The Bad: Price doesn't include an optional memory card (onboard memory is limited to 12MB for capturing video); rechargeable battery doesn't recharge via USB connector; no integrated USB connector; no protective carrying case included.
The Bottom Line: The MHS-PM1 Webbie HD represents a step forward for Sony in the minicamcorder arena--but some quirks and only OK video quality prevent it from being compelling enough to best the competition.
