Samsung has a SSD (solid state drive) camcorder out now.

I use a JVC GZ-MC500 that originally you had to use microdrives (CF), now that the high capacity CF's are out it really rocks. The microdrives chewed up battery life (as well as the vibration problem).

SSD is the way to go, you'll probably see more models coming out in the near future.

There will be a memory card swing very soon as well, FAT32 has a 32gb limit that is quickly becoming a problem so there will need to be a format change to NTFS or (God forbid) LINIX.

Hopefully, we won't see another fiasco like the Blu-ray / DVD-HD mess...
