Angry record hi-res video?

I used the video capture for the first time yesterday. I was very happy with what I was seeing as I was recording, and sooo dissapointed later when it was the same old low-res movies we've had since WM1.0.. Is there a way to record video in 640x480?

Are there any pocket PCs out there that have a camera that is actually usable in terms of time-to-take-the-picture? I start the camera app and wait.. It's like vacuum tubes warming up or something.. The screen finally comes up and the auto-iris corrects and it tries to find the focus. I put my finger on the button and it re-sets the focus to the highlighted area. I press the button again, and almost a second later the picture is finally taken. I guess this works for landscape vistas, but when you have three kids you always end up with blurry memories of what almost happened..
