Camera video comparison

Do all the Clie cameras record video at the same size or is the NZ90s bigger than some or all?

All Clie cameras record at the 160x116 (or whatever the exact pixel dimension is). However "Clievideo.com" made a program that allows the NR series clie's running OS4 to record video at many sizes including 240x320 size.

The NR and NX clie's record video very smooth but the colors are washed out a bit. Whereas the NZ records video that is very minorly "choppy" or compressed looking, but the colors are much more saturated and rich.

A friend at work has an NR, and two NX's... I have the NZ. We did some comparrisons with the video.

I've emailed Clievideo many times (they are the makers of Lightspeed,etc...) and asked them about making a program similiar to what they made for the NR series clie that would allow higher resolution recording. They said it would be a lot of work and until Sony released the programming documentation for the video cameras on the Palm OS5 Clie's they most likely wouldn't attempt to make this program.

Yes, all the recorded videos are 160x112
[they can play back larger videos, and the VRK1000 will record larger ones too.

The NX/NZ has two compression options (192+32 kbps or 96+32 kbps)
The UX has an additional compression option of 256+32 kbps for even better quality videos [but still the same size of 160x112]

is there a way to use this higher bitrate for other clie's?
