I got a Kodak DC3200 with 10MB Flash card and USB Card Reader for around 200
quid from action.com - its a megapixel with a pretty good LCD panel. Not as
full featured as the DC2xx range, but not bad for that price. Warning: the
CF slot is exactly to specification, and hence can't take an IBM Microdrive
:(
Also, Jessops seems to do reasonably priced own-brand CF cards - around 50
quid for a 32 meg card - not bad prices for the high street.
Haven't tried the CF reader with Linux yet :(
