Remember the super-tiny Muvi Micro DV Cam from last year? Now the same company has released an even smaller model named “Atom”, measuring no more than 4 x 2 x 1.5 cm.
Despite its eye-rubbing weeny-ness the Muvi records in VGA quality (640×480) equivalent to the best selling (and comparatively enormous) Mino and Ultra by Flip. Incredible! Videos are stored on the included 2GB Micro SD card, but for those of you who prefer real epics the Muvi can handle cards up to 8GB.
The Muvi has a special VOX mode that lets you start/stop recording using your voice (or any other noise over 65 decibels). As you’ve undoubtedly guessed, the Muvi is charged via USB while uploaded movies can be fiddled with using the included software.

It may be small but does it work? Also what is the battery lif like it has to be terrible on something this small. If you want to video anything of worth good battery life is essential.
