Best "cool" module?

Merry Christmas to all VC'ers.

My son is looking for a "cool" module for his Visor Plat, on which to spend some money he received from relatives for Christmas. (he's 13, and received some Write Rights and a Camouflage SmarterCase to protect his Visor).

He was thinking about an eyemodule2 ($160 at Handspring), but I mentioned the Targus Handcam ($80 at buy.com).

Any other recommendations? What is a "cool" module that would impress a 13-yr old and his crowd (almost 14--8th grade)

Thanks, and happy new year.

From my own expereince in the last two years get a camera. Their fun at school, everyone is amazed at them - and from what I hear the Handcam is an unprescedented deal!

Refer to http://home.attbi.com/~maxwell.house/handcam.htm for a comparison of cameras. The Eymodule is weak at best. I'm going for a handcam soon.

You interested in a Eyemodule for cheap?

My two bits would be either the MiniJam or the HandCam. I saw that Amazon.com has a major sale on MiniJams. I htink it was like $100 for a 32 meg module with an extra 32 meg card thrown in. I love my MiniJam.

I agree, $100 is a great price, but it appears to be now $200 on Amazon.

When did you see that $100 price?

Darn...it was in an email that I got from Amazon. I might have been off on the price. Did oyu see in the Marketplace that LeadXPaint is selling his 128meg Ice MiniJam for $100+ shipping.

That's an amazing deal.
