Hi Mia,
I was using a Zoom Q3HD last night and was blown away by it. They are
available for less than £200 and have superb sound quality as well as HD
recording. Flips don't tend to provide very usable sound, especially in
environments with a lot of noise or bad acoustics. The Zoom will give
you a bit more control over the direction of the sound that you are
recording.
There's a review and examples here:

Thanks,
Alex
