Cisco bought out Pure Digital in a multi-million dollar deal earlier this year and they intend to use their networking know-how to launch a new Wi-Fi-enabled Flip digital camcorder.
Those lovelies over at Pocket-Lint had a chat with a Cisco spokesperson who said that the new range would feature “a large screen that slides to reveal the record and menu buttons underneath” allowing users to see what is going on when they are recording video.
Cisco wants to keep this in the pocket-friendly region in cost as well as size so don’t go dreaming about touchscreens and the like!
The plan is that you’ll be able to record video and upload it straight from the camcorder over Wi-Fi networks both private and public, a feature currently being offered in some DSLRs.

You know that the first details broke of the Microsoft-backed phones earlier this week.
Today you get to see the real things!
What you get is the Moto/Palm styled ‘Turtle’ and the ‘Pure’ is the one that appears to share heritage with the Google G1.
As already stated both handsets will be made by Sharp who, incedentally, also make the hardware for the Sidekick handset.
The pics seem to be the only new news apart from the candybar Pure has a slidey out keypad and the fact that these phones seem to have a focus on the ‘youth’ market (more Sidekick leanings) and there’s whispers of a related app store and that Zune functionality.
Thing is – the Sidekick is more popular stateside and Microsoft has said a huge no to the Zune coming to the UK.
So – will these Pink phones make it over?
Would you buy one if they did?
Let me know
