so far i am looking at the pv gs 320, and the  Canon Elura 90, or maybe a sony handy cam.

Also you may want to watch this auction. I have a feeling it's going to go for relatively cheap.

The PVGS500 will go for upwards of $600, so I'd keep on eye on that auction. It really isn't a GREAT deal better than pvgs380, but depending on the price it could be a deal.

I don't know alot about the Elura 90, sorry. Here's a review on it though. Keep in mind these cameras are two years or older, so the prices the list aren't exactly what they should be going for nowadays.
