Ah yes, I know this cam and LOVE IT. I know it as the Zumi Digital and took it to Mexico for a wedding: <http://www.flickr.com/photos/schlomo/sets/72157622609994593/>
I've taken a bunch of video with it... you are right, there is no audio. I'll post some up as the videos I have posted so far are private. I love the camera in the same way I love my Lomo and Holgas. They create a very specific look. And like Lomo's, you dont really use a viewfinder, so you just dive into experimentation.
