I'm intrigued by the price/performance of Xacti CG10. Several wins for it, including video directly importable into iMovie without any conversion (true?).
One distinguishing feature between low-cost (Flips) vs. mid-ranged HD cameras is the image stabilization (IS) feature. Xacti CG10 cheats by using digital stabilization (is it still decent?). An optical IS feature would be a big deal if you enjoy shooting casual video handheld.
