So, Sony got iFixit.com CEO Kyle Wiens to do a teardown of the new Bloggie 3D minicamcorder. Usually, I like a good teardown, but this one is sofa-king boring. Why? Because one of the best parts of iFixit.com's product teardowns is finding out the manufacturers of all the individual components. Of course, that doesn't happen here.

Instead, we just get an eyeful of all the bits and pieces that go into making this pocket 3D video camera. There's a brief look at Kyle stripping it down, but mostly it's just all the parts laid out and some close-up looks at them. Oh, and a healthy dose of sneaky marketing to let you know why the Bloggie 3D is so worth $250.
