HD camcorders
Design prototypes for future Hitachi camcorders on display this week at the CEATEC trade fair in Makuhari, near Tokyo. The device on the right will have a Blu-ray disc in it. The one that looks like a shaver, on the left, is designed to have flash memory. Several manufacturers want to bring cheaper models (priced at $1,000 or less) to the market next year.

Two remotes? Yes, that?s what Hitachi ships with its DVD burners with hard drives. Sometimes you want the simple one and other times you want all the features.
