Sony MiniDisc DV Cam Does Java, Ethernet

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the but-does-it-do-windows dept.

Even more interesting, the camcorder features a Java 2.0 GUI and an Ethernet port so you can download your files from the built-in web server." Now all you need is a hot chick or two, a lot of bandwidth, and a macro virus and you're in business!

    I posted this stuff a few weeks ago when someone asked about digital cameras.

    Over at minidisc.org they have some good information about this camera, along with some external reviews. The thing does look very cool. Just hook it up to the net and you can do your webserving right off of it.
