SYDNEY, Australia, 21 April 2010 - The popular pocket video camera Flip Video, just got even better with the release of the next generation Flip MinoHD. According to latest statistics, Aussies are big fans of video sharing with over 10.6 million Australians watching online videos each month[1].

Flip Video has created a demand and love for video thanks to its sleek design, ease of use, great video quality, and FlipShare software.  It has already won a range of industry awards and a growing number of famous Aussie faces have been spotted using Flip Video.

The newest version of Flip Video is now available in leading consumer electronics retailers with a RRP of AU$299.95.  It includes twice the memory of the original Flip MinoHD enabling up to 120 minutes recording time; the ability to upload videos directly to Facebook; a larger LCD screen; and a new rounded design with a brushed metal finishing. 

Another feature of the next generation Flip MinoHD is the latest version of FlipShare software, the advanced on-board software platform that allows users to plug the Flip's signature flip-out USB into any computer to easily organise, and edit their videos. FlipShare also lets users share their videos by quickly and easily uploading directly to YouTube, MySpace and Facebook, and by sending via email.

 "Flip Video has changed the video camera market and made shooting and sharing videos easier than ever before," said Todd Lynton, Managing Director of Cisco Consumer Products ANZ. "Flip has been a huge hit in Australia and the next generation Flip MinoHD lets users shoot twice as much video, enjoy a bigger screen, and even upload their videos directly to Facebook with the latest version of FlipShare."
