Covert I and II trail cameras

I just found an interesting new trail camera. It is called the Covert (I & II). This camera appears to be only about the size of your hand. I can see that it would be great for a lot of low profile places. It would be very easy to hide this one where others can not find it. It rune off of 8AA batteries and requires an SD card. Both are exactly what I look for in a camera. I highly recommend for you to go to their website at http://www.coueswhitetail.com/bookstore/trail_cameras.htm
Their site is set up very nice and seems to be well thought out in terms of ease of use. I am excited to try out one of their cameras and plan on doing so as soon as possible. Being the time of year it is, I will probably wait until summer before purchasing one. This way I will have the opportunity to try it out within the 60 day return policy if it does not perform well. They currently have two models, the Covert I and the Covert II.
Here is some info from their website on the Covert I-

DLC Covert I
This is a 5 MP trail camera. It is very small and fits in your hand. The remote control is used to control the settings on the camera (it connects with a wire to the camera). You can also connect it to a TV or USB port to see your photos. Or just remove the SD card and put it in your computer to retrieve photos.
This camera uses infrared for nighttime photos rather than a regular flash. So nighttime photos/video are black and white. Daytime photos/videos are in color.
This camera requires an SD card to operate. It has no internal memory to store images. SD card not included, but can be purchased below. 8 AA batteries are also required, but not included.
