    @Domo: Depends on who you're looking for. I'm sure Rosa would command a pretty healthy rate, and most anyone with a golden star under their name is gonna set you back quite a bit, so I'd guess a few minutes at most.

    SteveDave, however ... well let's just say you better cash in that 401K. #samsungdualviewtl225

    That was... fast.
    Sounded more like a response to GF1 than a refresh, but the faster these beauties advance, the better!

    I'm in between now... viewfinder is a must for me, and now both have it.

    I see movie recording also got a manual shutter/apperture too.

    Flash could be useful but not that important.

    In reply to iPevo Point 2 View USB: The Webcam Who Thinks It's a Luxo Lamp
    Time for a death match between Luxo and Luxo's evil twin the iPevo. That said, shouldn't iPevo really be a device for chopping up apple's into pieces or creating apple sauce? Or maybe that was not the definition of "pevo" I was considering.

    I admit I have had many web cams over the years (my first in 1998, I believe), and I use them maybe twice a year. You have to have it to be an "official" geek, but it is not the most useful computing device I have ever had. But, this design is so damn cute, I might use it more often. Four times a year, maybe. #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @Monty: I think the usefulness of the webcam increases with the amount of out of town family or close friends you have. I have a lot of family in south africa and my webcam definitely makes them feel a little bit closer. However if all my family and friends were local... or at least close family and friends I wouldn't see me using it much at all. #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @Sunburn_summer: Good points. Most of my family lives in places where broadband is not an option (out in the sticks, or above the arctic circle -- truly), so that could limit my personal use. But, even in the work setting I have found seeing the face of the person on the other side to not be particularly useful. Though, that could be because every day is a bad hair day for me.

    One of my main complaints about this technology is how little we have taken this into conferences. Why are we not attending various conferences through WebEx or similar systems where can can train folks while they can see us, and anyone could see any of the other participants? I had a long discussion about that with WebEx and they didn't have a good answer for me.

    Still, this is a nice computer camera design, regardless. #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @Monty: Into conferences? Is a college class a good example? All of my MS classes were streamed live along side overhead notes (powerpoint slides) for people who were not on-campus. Otherwise, I use mine pretty often, 1-2 times per week and I like seeing the face. It beats holding a phone to my ear, and I don't walk around the house with my bluetooth in (often).

    Unrelated, "pevo" sounds like the Polish word for beer, "piwo". So hence forth, this product will be known as iBeer. Beer goggle? Beer monocle? Any of these half-ass jokes doin' it for ya? #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @Monty: I know what you mean. A few years ago even though we had webcams and good systems on both sides video chat between here and south africa was barely useable. Partly due to the tech, partly due to South Africa's awful internet speeds. Often we would start with video, but turn it off because it would make the call quality so unbearable. It's only been about the last 3 years that the speeds in SA have picked up and made video chat great. Now I very rarely get a dropped call, and there is no noticeable lag. Couldn't imagine not using video chat now. #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @valkilmerisawful: I am ashamed to admit I have not been in a college campus setting since 1993, and that certainly sounds excellent. My apologies about being out of touch on that front.

    What I was referring to was national conferences involving thousands of people. In this day and age, why should I have to fly to Florida to meet and chat with new people when a web camera (and a well programmed web site) could do the job? Of course, the Gaylord hotels might not like this concept, but it seems like an easy answer. But, I am dreaming.

    I think your jokes were "full"-ass, and I enjoyed them thoroughly! #ipevop2vusbwebcam

    @Monty: Hahaha "full"-ass... I just lol'ed or lulz'ed or whatever the kids think is cool these days. I agree with you, though, that that is seems like traveling can be wasteful and that webconferencing might help. But I suppose it doesn't replace the presence of a real human being, and it's got a long way to go to simulate the grandiose experience of a national conference, I'm sure. Until then, at the very least it makes me feel like I'm not just drinking alone in my apartment when I have a friend on the screen :)

    Also, please keep in mind that the $28,000 Epic-X package is only available to people who had already purchased RED Ones...anyone who is purchasing the camera without having previously owned a RED One will not be getting the extra accessories for the $28,000, and the camera will be the Epic, not the Epic-X variation. #reddsmc
