I was going to purchase from them as well but read their reviews and found it was not worth getting a camera throught them.
Please see review

The good thing about the FX1 is that you have the choice to record your video on DV or HDV or 24p or 30p. The FX1 is the best camera that will give you the best video quality , as it is the only camera of the three that records and plays in High Definition. I just purchased the FX1 and did so after a month of research for the best video quality camera. The video quality on all three camera's are the same in DV mode, but none compare to the FX1's High Definition. I'm not sure how anyone can say that the other cameras have better quality then High Definition.
Also Ulead has just made a plugin to capture, render and edit High Definition video.
