It's tough to get a feel for the products without going hands on, but judging by Creative's provided images, these are surely contenders for the ugliest pocket camcorders ever conceived. We'd opt for Kodak's Zi8 based on looks alone.

I realise it's tough to give an opinion when there's little more than visuals, but which (half-intelligent) being on earth has ever bought a camcorder based on looks?

Just a personal thing, but Hexus is starting to annoy me with it's "we think this is better", "the Hexus team feels you'd be better off..." news too. It's news, not a personal blog... and I seriously doubt the entire Hexus crew think the same on everything. Give an opinion in the forums and of course in reviews, but not in the news item. That should remain as fact (or rumours), not opinion.
