As each hour goes by we’re getting closer to hacking up the $30 CVS one Time Use Camcorder. Here’s a flyer (View image)that actually has it for $19.99. Over on the camera hack forums you can check out the latest. New photos, USB dumps, parts lists and a lot of people about to literally crack this. By this weekend, I think it’s be out in the wild.

All Things Considered run a long piece on the “disposable” camcorder last night. The manufacturer is counting on each unit being used at least twice; expected lifetime is five cycles.
Other than the hackability potential, it strikes me as a dumb idea. Way overpriced and not very flexible.
I just bought, on special for $97 at Target, a DV camcorder that’s also a still camera, voice recorder, and MP3 player.
