Don't think so. As you can easily find similar price around $410 shipped w/o tax. Just warm, though my prefered.

jinduy, it really depends on what you want from the camera. The S200 is 2.1Mpels with a 2x optical zoom, the S30 is 3.2Mpels with a 3x optical zoom. The S200 is a point-and-click camera with very few options, the S30 comes with point-and-click mode but also alows you to play with settings a little. Check out Digital Photography Review for indepth reviews of both of these cameras.

Me I'm looking to upgrade my S100 (the precursor to the S200) to an S40 (the big brother of the S30).

Good deal. Only a bit more than the $409 that was available at Buy.com until recently (currently OOS). Don't forget the 3% from eBates for Dell Home Sofware & Peripherals ONLY - which will yield another $12 or so.

I still don't get it how come that Dell has to wait more than other retailers to get something from Canon.
Microcenter has it on 5-7 days shipping compared with almost 2 months at Dell.
Damn' Dell !!!

Of course, I'll believe that 5-7 day delivery when I have my S30 in my hand.
So far, they haven't even figured out how to email an order confirmation, and it's
been about 18 hours.

This is a VERY nice camera. I just got mine this last weekend. You will not be disappointed. Somehow I got BB to pricematch Dell, but I still ended up paying tax. But, it beats the hell out of waiting a month for it to get here.

The flash is a little bright indoors on the default setting, but it can be adjusted. Otherwise, it takes great close up pics on the manual focus mode. Outdoor pics come out great. Just make sure you grab another CF card. Pictures average about 700 kbs in size. Battery life is excellent, but you may want to pick up another as well.
