Ok, this has gotten me motivate to try out my flip video this weekend....the potential use is great,...plan is I am going to try using it to highlight a new piece of technology that we just purchased called the sonic care, I have used this device, which is like an ultrasound machine to a vein on a person that was next to impossible to start.
This is great news. Good luck! I'm interested to find out how you edit the movie files. I've yet to find a good solution - the .mp4 files require file conversion to get into my editing software. If you have iMovie, it's not a problem ... I think.
Let us know how it turns out!

Funded by The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, College Open Textbooks is a collection of colleges, governmental agencies, education non-profits, and other education-related organizations that are focused on the mission of driving the awareness and advocacy for open textbooks. This includes providing training for instructors adopting open resources, peer reviews of open textbooks, and mentoring online professional networks that provide support to authors who open their resources. Through our community outreach, we have found that open textbooks should be:
* easy to use, get and pass around,
* editable so instructors can customize content,
* cross-platform compatible,
* printable,
* and accessible so they work with adaptive technology. "
