Flip Cam...

I think that stopping the production of the Flip Cam is a wise decision by the company. The demand has decreased due to more convenient media devices. Most cell phones can easily take the place of a Flip Cam and exceed it's capabilities as well. The shift in production priorities for Cisco will allow them to create new products and focus on the ones that need some extra attention.

The capabilities of a Flip Cam are limited, and different editions (versions) aren't available. I can't speak for all Flip Cam consumers, but I know that the one i've had for two years is still working effectively so I don't need to consider buying another one. The lack of innovation with the product is one good reason that Cisco should stopt production and work on other projects that could/will eventually offer updates and advancements.
