You can get the Canon S400 for $320 + tax with dell coupons until midnight, kickass camera. Check fatwallet for details.

You answered correctly :) Digicams were NOT meant to be super tiny so they fit into your pocket.

If you can afford a little more I would highly recommend the Canon PowerShot A70 (no sales tax in most states).

Or check out OfficeMax.com where you can purchase a:
Fuji FinePix A205 2.0 Megapixel Digital Camera $199.98
Canon A300 3.2 MegaPixel Digital Camera $199.98
Sony DSC-P32 Cyber-shot 3.2 MegaPixel Digital Camera $199.98

Use a $30 off $150 coupon and of course free shipping :)

Read this review and check out the sample pictures.

I disagree, I use mine so much more now that I can carry it with me all the time. The size makes it so much nicer!

I double disagree, there's a reason digicams have camera cases!!!

Nice links, Rossman. I'd also recommend maybe the canon s230 for $299 + $50 gift certificate from amazon?

Actually it's around 7 pounds but my next laptop will be 5.4 pounds (IBM ThinkPad T40) or lighter.

Good call, I've had my t20 for over 3 years now, I love it.

Of course it's a good call, would you expect anything less from me?

Wait don't answer that :D
