A new third-party iPhone application from Monster and Friends can record video up to 45 frames per second via the iPhone’s built-in camera. The developers are still working on a final version, but have released a limited beta which records a five second video and immediately plays it back. The final version will be able to record unlimited-sized clips (until the available storage runs out) up to 30 fps and will include an interface to save your videos. While impressive, this release is most noteworthy as a confirmation of video recording on the iPhone, a feature that is likely to be implemented either by Apple or through a third-party solution once the developer kit is released in February.

Terrific news. The lack of video recording was one of my chief complaints at the outset. I used my Treo to grab short clips all the time and I do miss that feature.

This is a “third party app”? I thought that all non-Apple applications have to be web-based. I can’t imagine how that could work for recording video.
