Pure Digital Camcorder Uploads to Video Sharing Web Sites

You remember that cheap $30 disposable video camera from Pure Digital right? Well, you can only go up from there, so they've introduced a few new camcorders aimed at video sharing. The Pure Digital Point & Shoot Camcorder is not trying to be a high-end camcorder, this device is for capturing short videos on-the-fly without the features you would find on most camcorders. You get what you pay for, it costs just $129.99 for the 30-minute camcorder, and $169.00 for a 60-minute model.

Now Pure Digital has relationships with Google Video and Grouper Networks, and the camcorder has built-in software that enables users to connect directly to these video sharing web sites in just three steps: shoot video with the touch of a button; plug the camcorder's built-in USB arm into a PC or Mac; and upload video directly to Google Video or Grouper Networks via the software. You can also do one-step emailing, video greeting cards, and custom-edited movie mixes.
