Review of the Flip SlideHD Camcorder

Use this to discuss the Review of the Flip SlideHD Camcorder video, posted in the Secrets of Flip HD Camcorders workshop.
The Flip SlideHD makes it easier to watch video on the camcorder itself, providing a 3" diagonal screen, and room enough for up to 12 hours of video, if you load it from a Flip Channel. I presented this as another dimension of shareability, which seems to be Flip's big differentiatior. Is this convincing? Do you see a downside?

A feature I forgot to mention...
Because the Slide needs to lie flat on its lens side when you're doing table-top viewing of your videos, they recessed the lens. There is no lens bump-out on the Slide. That makes it a hair slimmer, and a tad more pocketable than the UltraHD.
As of now, the price at Amazon is $265.96, but they are re-selling from another retailer, so you don't get free shipping. Shipping cost is $8.00, so it looks like you only actually save about $6.00.
Here's the link to purchase at that price.
