I have this gadget for a couple of weeks now. I am using it with a 1GB card which gives me 2 1/2 hours of video recording in 640x480 mode with ones set of rechargeable batteries. I used it on the dashboard of my car, using it handheld while riding my bicycle. Yes, the resolution and frames per second is not high quality. It needs quite a bit of light. Outside on a sunny day is perfect. The faster the objects are moving the more blurrs. But it gives family and friends a good idea of what I want to show. MP3 worked without a flaw and the still pictures outperformed my 2 megapixel camera. Also the Webcam feature worked great. While connected to USB it gets the power from the computer. Much better picture than the Logitech Webcam I have. Too bad that the DV5900 has no optical zoom. The digital zoom just reduces the resolution. Up to 2x the resolution is acceptable. Only 4 stars because I really want the video in better quality. But for what I got the money is right.
