Samsung's new Minikets, the VP-MS15, the VP-MS11, and the VP-MS10

Not sure we're so fond of the brand name "Miniket", but Samsung just introduced three new business card-sized 5.25 megapixel Miniket digital cameras which can also double as MP3 players, the 512MB VP-MS15, the 128MB VP-MS11, and the 64MB VP-MS10 (what, no 256MB version?). All three have 3x optical zoom lenses, miniSD memory card slots, voice recording, webcam functionality, and the ability to record VGA quality MPEG4 video. Should be available in South Korea next month, with a European release to follow in November.

Not sure if I'm hot on the Mini-SD thing but I like the design, size, and features.

gotta love 640x480 mpeg4 as long as it's not overly compressed!

Looks like the Sony T series cameras.

i suppose one could use this as a PVP too, seeing it has headphone jacks and a mini-sd slot. just convert your movies to VGA mpeg4 and off you go! hmmm not a bad idea...

Number 4, Kevin, has a pretty good idea there (depending on the quality of the lcd). So that makes it what? A 4 in 1 device? That would definately help clear out my pockets.

Especially if you keep money in your pockets.
