Cheap Geek: Olympus Camera, Nokia Internet Tablet, JVC Video Camera

I’m going to try to include fewer Flash drives in Cheap Geek going forward, and just assume that anyone who ever wanted a Flash drive probably has three of them.

So if you see a Flash drive in this space, just know that it’s a really slow day for deals. Or else I changed my mind.

1. I hear you; you’re saying, “I’d love a fancy schmancy digital camera for my summer vacation in Cancun, one with at least 8 megapixels, but who’s got $100 to spend?” Well, amigo, Office Max has you covered. Grab an Olympus FE-20 for the mind-bendingly low price of $69.99. It’s got 3X optical zoom and face-tracking. If you buy this by June 6, you get a free “starter kit,” a mystery prize that Office Max doesn’t define.

2. More than a PDA, less than a notebook, and, now, less than $200. Buy.com has the Nokia N810 Internet Tablet for $199.99, with free shipping. Use this WiFi-connected device to stay in touch and get work done when you don’t want a large notebook weighing down your bag.

3. Prices are dropping on home video. Buy.com has the JVC MiniDV Camcorder for $149.99, and that also includes free shipping. Besides using versatile miniDV tapes for recording, this video camera has a 30x optical zoom and a 115 minute battery.
