Useless Bundles

On friday my new camera, a Sony TRV-80E arrived. "Great, let's use it!", I thought, unpacked everything and wanted to immediately record something. But, hey, where is a cassette? Guess what, you buy such an expensive camera and it doesn't have a cassette in the package. Great, well done, Sony! Ok, others are doing the same, but why? A camera without a cassette is pretty useless. Oh, yes, you have this great memory stick. Do you know that you can buy memory sticks ranging from 8mb to 1gig? And now guess which one of those is bundled with the camera? Yes, correct, the 8mb one. Now, you can make a 1 minute movie with it. Isn't that great? I mean, they must not bundle the 1gig version with it, but what about 64mb or so? So, when buying such things order some cassettes and perhaps a bigger memory stick as well! 10:05:51 AM
