Its new Everio, due out in October, is a tapeless camcorder with a tiny 4-GB removable hard drive (the same hardware that's tucked in Apple's iPod Mini) capable of storing up to six hours of DVD-quality video.

...first frame was close throughout, with the score being tied six times. After the two teams were knotted at 18, Harvard jumped out to a four-point lead, prompting the Big Red to call a timeout with the score at 28-24. An ensuing mini-rally by Cornell forced the Crimson to turn to the huddle with game point hanging at 29-27. But Ogbechie registered a reverberating kill to secure the Harvard...
