If the Engadget review is accurate to real world performance, I would say pass. It seems like it's strong in most aspects except battery life, which I feel is critical if you're going to use if for an entire day.

Quote from the Engadget review:

"50 still images and 20 minutes of capturing 1080p footage had our review unit hanging on for dear life, and we aren't confident that a full charge is capable of lasting through a solid hour of filming."

Its out alright.

Not sure how will it perform. At least here in Mexico, I can get it for $3,499 Mexican Pesos (that's around $299 USD, tax incl.)

Usually, electronics are WAY expensive in mexico; Id say this should be more or less $229 or even down to $199 USD + tax.

So, if It performs "fine" (not great, not bad); I'd say its a pretty good deal. Casio uses nice lenses and nifty firmware; and Casio's cameras are usually overpriced.

Seems to me as a good option; although, I'm looking for a cheap video camera that'll shoot HD to use for a VideoNetcast, so, I don't need the battery life; but I'm not quite sure this will do it.
