pure digital flip ultra series f 230 camcorder

Woot just got good news to all gadget lovers out there. Today's deal is certainly an outright winner because (today only) you can get a recertified Pure Digital Flip Video Ultra F230 pocket camcorder for $59.99, plus $5 for two-day shipping. You can even pick the color you want.

In case you are unfamiliar with it, the Flip Video Ultra records VGA-quality video to internal memory, then plugs into your PC via a stowaway USB plug for easy uploading to friends, relatives, YouTube, etc. A simple built-in software makes all this possible.

The F230 model holds only 30 minutes of video, which is good enough for short-burst clips you're likely to shoot with this gadget.

And let's be honest: It's a toy. You wouldn't use this to record, say, a wedding, but it's fantastic for goofing around with friends, sharing cute clips of the kids with faraway relatives, and the like.

But because this is a refurbish item, it carries a 90-day warranty. The Flip Ultra makes for an awesome stocking stuffer, IMHO, and at $59.99 it's quite a bit cheaper than you'll find it elsewhere. These will surely sell out before the day is done.
