I really don't see this as a good thing for Cisco. This company is a one hit wonder with a pretty bad product done better even by the likes of Aiptek and RCA (Small Wonder is very nice). I don't see how this company is worth anything to Cisco, unless they know of a secret product in development that they wanted their hands on.
I really don't see the Flip gaining any more marketshare now that the big name camcorder companies have taken notice, and are making competing products, as well as cell phone companies improving their video recording functions. I think Cisco would have been better off trying to make a deal with Kodak or Panasonic.
The Triumph proved to be one of the better looking and performing pre-paid handsets we'd had the pleasure of holding in our sweaty mitts, but we had one major hangup: the name.
