You can get a Sima LED light. Not expensive.

I've got it listed in my book's store:
http://getseen.ning.com/store

It's rechargeable, but you also can't run it plugged in. So you have to plan 
when using it to have it charged up.

 The LitePanels have a great reputation. LED camera mounted lights. Very cool, 
 very efficient. But expensive.
 
 You can also get hot shoe splitters or doublers, whatever they may be called 
 that will give you 2 shoes from your on-camera 1 shoeif that makes sense

  that I really need some sort of lighting solution. I was doing impromptue 
  interviews in Hotel lobby's, conference rooms and hallways. Obviously not 
  the best lighting situtation. I ended up trying to stand underneath some of 
  the spotlights in the ceiling and most of the shots came out OK but they 
  would have been much better with a light.
  
  Ideally I am looking for something battery powered, small, and that can be 
  attached to my camera or tripod. I have a cold shoe attachment but it is 
  occupied by my microphone. I am using a Panasonic HDC-TM300 if that matters.
  
  Any suggestions? Thanks!
