Bob,... I find your report on this camera, and accompanying posted links, very interesting. I received a Best Buy gift card for Father's Day and I really like the small size and versatility of your new camera.

I'll have to watch the Circuit City ads and the Best Buy ads and see if this model comes up at a reduced price. This sounds like a perfect camera to carry with me on a day-to-day basis. My Olympus Evolt 300 SLR is just too big for that purpose. I love the 8.0 megapixel capability of my Olympus and the interchangeable lenses, but the thought of having a 7.2 megapixel pocket-size camera makes me smile.

I would be interested in knowing if you checked the Internet for any special deals on this camera before you bought it at a retail store.
