On one level, you gotta love Hitachi. When not building nuclear power plants or locomotives, its engineers crank out televisions and DVD camcorders. In other words, Hitachi has engineering muscle; they're a bit challenged in the marketing arena, though, since they barely spend a dime letting consumers know what they have. Even though Sony is the dominant player in DVD camcorders, Hitachi actually made the first one in 2000 and supplied Panasonic for years. So much for being the first to market!
