Looks like a lot of fun.

This is neat but how do you land the plane with no wheels?

Many RC planes do not have an undercarriage. They are hand launched and skid land. It can be much harder to land a plane with landing gear than one without (also precludes landing on grass for smaller planes).

too bad it doesn't mention any specs about the camera or it's resolution...

I first saw this in my SmartHome catalog, and thought it was cool... http://www.smarthome.com/95621.HTML
There is a lot more information on the SmartHome site, including pictures.

I like the Walmart price better!

That video looks great. I noticed some other places carry this plane as well, I believe buy.com had it even cheaper. The camera pictures look like 640x480, resolution of a typical pen camera.
