You have to have a Mac to use Kodak's software to upload, and then I use Mac's IMovie to edit.
Maybe the jumpiness is something that can be fixed. That doesn't sound right. I'm not tech savvy. I would look for a Flip or Microsoft forum and ask around.
The Kodak PlaySport is high definition and really easy, and waterproof! Britster made a great video last summer of Jackson swimming. It's $120 on Amazon, plus the price of the SD card (is that what it is called?
) Not sure about being able to load directly to YouTube or Facebook.
