I want to get one for our RV trip this coming April (2007). I would like it to be HD, but it doesn't have to be seeing as they are very expense right now. I want it to record on the hard drive, so that I can just download it straight to my computer. And I do not want to deal with DVDs and tapes because there is going to be a lot of it (we are going to see the whole country). SO what kind is good? I have no idea where to even start. Any help would be great. Thanks!!

Seems like there is only one cam out there that fits your needs - the Sony DCR-SR100. It's a hard drive cam that has picture quality that is on par with the best DVD cam that Sony makes (505 or 5-0-something). The 30 gig drive will hold something like 7 to 14 hours of video. Not bad.
check out the review on camcorderinfo (best camcorder site):

Hopefully they'll have a hard drive HD cam available soon. Hope this helps.

Go for Sony 405. It has dual storage , on DVD and memory stick. Sharp pictures, Night mode, Sony quality...its amazing . I have used it some days back and believe me it rocks. Wonderful Still pictures is one additional reason to go for it. Anyways all the best for your journey

try canon or sony brand, old models pricing are reasonable
