Just got it today March 9, 2010 Andrew J. Fleming (The Leb, VA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Bought this last week - B stock is great deal. Nothing wrong with actual unit and even the box which they claimed was going to be in bad shape was perfect aside from a few white scratches and wrinkly manuals. Was in a big hurry to get it working and without thinking I put the battery in backwards which makes the USB logo stay on forever while charging and not boot when not charing (obviously). This is a design flaw because this is more common than one would think.
Anyway, recorded a short video and it looks great on my laptop screen. Def a good purchase because mine is like its brand new for $100 less than retail! Can't wait to mount it to my mountain bike this summer! Also, I am going to take with me on vacation in Hawaii and now that I see how nice it is, I am even more excited to use it!

Why is this thing called "B-stock"? March 9, 2010 JuryDuty (Texas USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Got my Vado today and it works GREAT. Just as advertised on Win7 64-bit. I don't know why they call this version "B-stock." It says on the Amazon page that it might have a damaged box, etc, but mine came brand new and sealed in a perfect, factory-sealed box. Nothing B-stock about it. If you're considering a Vado, don't bother paying full price. Get this "B-stock" one and get the same thing for about 50% less!
Awesome pocket camcorder. March 11, 2010 J. Lee (California USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I was a little skeptical about buying a "b-stock" item because it says the box is damaged in some way. I eventually ordered the item with free shipping and it took a little over a week to have it delivered to me(can't complain; it's free shipping after all). As I carefully opened the box, I realized the so-called "b-stock" item looked like it was brand new. What a great deal. For those who are wondering if the package includes a hdmi cable, it doesn't. So, I bought a hdmi cable so I could plug the vado directly into my hdtv. I took a couple of test shots around my home then plugged the Vado into my hdtv. The quality was great. Transferring the video files to my pc was a breeze. The quality looked clear and crisp on my 22" monitor.
Excellent Item for the Price February 25, 2010 B. Mohandas (NJ,US) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This camcorder comes with the silicone case and is perfect for the price.
The low-light performance is not so great also there is a lag in the light compensation when rapidly switching to a good light situation from low-light.
Some of the users complained about the audio lagging the video, this is not a defect. This is because the computer is slower.
If you upload the video to youtube or any other website you wont see the lag.
you need a Mini HDMI cable(A to C type) to be able to connect to the TV.
I highly recommend this product.
excellent picture quality March 26, 2010 J. Taylor (springfield MA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I can carry this above the visor in my car or in my shirt pocket and have it with me when I may need it. I can take little snippits of video and freeze a picture from it. It's better then a regular camera because you can move the image forward or back until you have just the right picture. 4GB was plenty. I only take video of family stuff and short events with it. I'm not videoing a whole baseball game or wedding with it but I can video the kiss, and the eating of the cake, stuff like that.
