As yet another example of cheap digital camcorders coming from overseas, DV Guru stumbled onto the MP3 Mini DV Camcorders (or MP3-DV) being released by GadgetGreats.com. Don’t let the name fool you, these little buggers don’t record to MiniDV tapes, but to SD cards. On the other hand, however, the MP3-DV cams do play MP3s, as the name suggests.

The MP3-DV camcorders are being marketed toward users of Youtube and other online video sharing services. Check out the linked press release for more details. It’s actually a fun read as they try to compare it to Apple iPods and state how their cheap (and in some cases blatantly ripped-off) products are going to force the giant companies to change their products.
