Since last holiday season when I bought my husband the Flip camcorder, Pure Digital has released two updated HD models, the most recent, the MinoHD 2nd Generation, which made its debut on October 15 (I reviewed the earlier HD on GHM in July).  Nice timing, Pure Digital (disclosure: a friend works for the company and sent me the latest model to use and review).  The MinoHD is perfectly sized and I predict it will be a winning gift this season. You may recall that I had some gripes about the Flip UltraHD, among them that the editing software (plug in your flip-out USB port to your computer, and voila! it’s there) didn’t allow for subtitles mid-movie.  I still have that gripe, although the updated FlipShare software for the Mino makes “Magic Movies” using highlights from the videos you select—a sort of automatic video collage that saves time editing.  You can now capture still photos from video, a plus if you’re at the pumpkin patch as I was this morning, trying to juggle camera and camcorder.  Flip’s new Facebook interface (direct uploads to all your friends and family) will win over many users, too.
