Canon A200 Vs. Olympus Camedia D-380

[HazeOfIgnorance]

Trying to decide which to get...
Canon Powershot A200
Olympus Camedia D-380

There pretty much the only 2.0 megapixel cams I can afford...

Thanks.

I'm trying to go as cheap as possible, but don't want to go over $200. I'm not really looking for an amazing Digicam...just something to hold me over till I can afford a nice 4.0 Megapixel.

Can you wait 2-3 weeks to buy a digicam? If you can then you can get a Canon PowerShot A40 for $250 - $50 off $250 coupon = $200 after OfficeMax.com gets the A40 back in stock.

What about the Sharp 3 MP for 227 at Fry's? I can't find any reviews, but it doesn't look too bad.

Do you know what the Sharp model number is?

Sharp 4MP
Sharp 3MP

Frys has the 3MP for 227 bucks. The body is plastic is kind of big. Someone over at FW said it might be using Canon's G1/G2 lenses.
