Which reminds me. Am I the _only_ PDMLer who is impressed with the little OptioS? Until now, via Boz' post, I've not heard one person comment on this little jewel. Well, other than a lot of palaver about how it will fit inside an Altoids box... Granted, it's not out yet. Maybe another month, but... The specs are impressive! No, it's not the BIG one! I won't be able to afford the BIG one for a long while anyhow. But, I will be able to just afford that OptioS, and I personally find the specifications very interesting. Nearly 3 times the number of pixels as my current camera, which I like a lot, but is BIG itself and it's not a Pentax! 35-105mm equivalent (3x) zoom TTL center and spot metering ISO settings for 50, 100 and 200 A Macro to 2.4"! (Super-Macro mode) Actual image viewfinder (that's what they said!) Boz...comments on what your impressions were? keith whaley
