I bought a new camera
I ordered an Canon S80 and it's coming in the mail. It's another point and shoot, but I'm hoping it's better than the one I've been using.

I'm getting the S80 too, just have to get my butt in gear and order it (birthday present). It wasn't available when I dropped my S70 in the creek and had to order another one (Sept), so now we will have 2 new cameras! The Canon Powershots are great cameras, as long as you don't keep dropping them (like me). :retard:
SN - I've noticed how nice your pictures look - that's one of the reasons I looked at the Canon S cameras. I thought that I'd be able to buy the S70 for a bargain price when the S80 came out but it wasn't much cheaper for the S70; so I went with the newer S80. It's that wide angle lens that I'm really excited about getting.

It came today. The battery is charging.
Thanks for the info on the battery cycleclimb. I can't afford to buy a second battery yet, so I'm hoping I'll be okay with one battery for now. I have to go buy a 1GB SD Memory card as it is. I have Sony Memory Sticks now because I have a couple Sony cameras and a Konica Minolta. The Sony's are pretty good cameras. The Konica Minolta just doesn't take that great of pictures - I bought it because the 5 mp Sony was in the repair shop and I needed a camera. I should have just used the old 2 mp Sony until the newer one came back. When the Sony came back from being repaired (for free) my son snatched it and I've been stuck with the 6 mp Konica Minolta and poor quality pictures.
I can't wait to try out the new Canon.
