Top New Gadgets: OnStar For Everyone, Wi-Fi Camera

 

If you got whacked by Irene, hopefully you had laid in some of the "12 Gadgets Every Home Should Have" I suggested earlier this year. Now that it's goodnight, Irene, may I suggest some new gadgets that may come in handy in Irene's aftermath or the next time you're visited by Mother Nature's wrath.

Sony VG20H High Definition Camcorder

Suffered home damage from Irene? Why not record the destruction for the insurance company in style with this impossibly small prosumer (which means it's a consumer camcorder packed with professional technologies) camcorder from Sony. What makes it pro? Like a D-SLR digital camera, the VG20H uses interchangeable lenses –there are four now, two more by the end of the year. The kit (with a lens) is $2,200; just the body is $1,600. Technically, it captures AVCHD high-def video in both 24p and 60p modes (for more film-like video), 16.1 MP stills, stereo and 5.1 surround sound recording, and a 3-inch touch LCD screen. It'll be available in November.
